5 Minutes for Parenting’s weekly column, A Dose of Humor, is here to remind you to take your humor pill regularly as the best medicine to treat the side effects of parenting! It features a different blogger every week and is hosted by Rachel at Grasping for Objectivity in My Subjective Life.
Katie is a stay at home Mom to a daughter with a big personality and wife to a man who plays way too much Boggle because he loves her. You can find her embarrassing herself daily at Heart Gone Walking with tales of young motherhood and a shameful number of Britney Spears references.
One night, after changing the last diaper, you might think it would be utterly adorable to allow your child to give Daddy a goodnight kiss in just a diaper. You might be tempted to follow her into the living room, PJ’s in hand, to watch them cuddle and hug and blow kisses on the bare belly.
You might laugh and chuckle with your husband when your precious little child decides to then take off her diaper and run back and forth across the room, laughing in her naked freedom.
You might even sit back in the couch and marvel at her sheer happiness, even though you know you should get her diaper back on ASAP.
But then you might get distracted by a pretty wedding invitation. And your sweet child might take the opportunity to squat and take a ginormous dump on the floor.
Consider yourself warned.
