Attention Children - The Bathroom Door is
Closed!
Please do not stand here and talk, whine, or
ask questions.
Wait
until I get out.
Yes, it is locked. I want it that way. It is not
broken, and I am not trapped.
I
know I have left it unlocked, and even open at times, since
you were born, because I was afraid some horrible tragedy
might occur while I was in there, but it's been 10 years and I
want some PRIVACY.
Do
not ask me how long I will be. I will come out when I am done.
Do
not bring the phone to the bathroom door.
Do
not go running back to the phone yelling "She's in the
BATHROOM!"
Do
not begin to fight as soon as I go in.
Do
not stick your little fingers under the door and wiggle them.
This was funny when you were two.
Do
not slide pennies, LEGOs, or notes under the door. Even when
you were two this got a little tiresome.
If
you have followed me down the hall talking, and are still
talking as you face this closed door, please turn around, walk
away, and wait for me in another room. I will be glad to
listen to you when I am done.
And
yes, I still love you.
Mom
