I always did enjoy privacy in the bathroom; but, the kids enjoyed whispering outside the door. Who knows what they were plotting.
My showers were always mine alone. But, as soon as I got into a bubble bath, there were little raps at my bedroom door.
I didn't worry about kid stuff on my clothes as much as cat fur. Note to self: black or white are for the brave. Lactation was a problem - always seemed to hit in the middle of grocery shopping.
We had table rules. No one started eating until everyone was seated. No one leaves without being excused, either.
We also had a rule about furniture, not that it was always followed. Now that my kids have their own places, maybe I can finally replace the furniture that has managed to outlast their early years. More pieces were destroyed by cats than kids.
I was a supremely organized multi-tasker and thoroughly enjoyed delegating tasks to whomever is standing around with nothing else to do...hehe
Shopping with toddlers was an adventure. While the boys were quite cooperative and well-behaved, my daughter, the youngest, would be more than a handful. She still is!
I did have "quiet time," about the time I fell asleep...usually just before the time I had to wake up. lol!
