Everytime I look at them I wish I had a sister

Yesterday, just as the girls were ready to wash their hands after lunch - I had to go. And I mean GO. It just hit me out of nowhere.

I managed to get Katie unstrapped from her booster seat and washed - but the running water just killed me. I was determined to push through! I got Maddie unbuckled - and I hit the wall.

"Mommyhastogopottyrightnowdon'tmove!" and I ran.

I could hear them jabbering away the whole time, and since I knew Maddie couldn't get down from her chair by herself I wasn't too worried. "Givemetwoseconds!"

Then I hear the water running at the sink. Uh oh. "I'mcoming!"

I get back to the kitchen and see the two of them standing on a chair in front of the sink. Katie has a paper towel and is drying off Maddie's hands. They both look over to me and smile big grins.

Miss Katie proceeds to tell me the tale ... "I got Maddie from da seat. I wash-ad herr haaands. All done!" And she throws the paper towel in the garbage can.

She was so proud - and so was I.
