We are only half way through summer here is suburbia and I have come to the realization that I could easily be replaced by a well timed tape recorder …or maybe a record with a couple of scratches in just the right places so once in a while it could get caught skipping!
Time for breakfast.
Hurry up a little please.
Did you brush your teeth?
Did you brush your hair?
Did you do a good job?
Oh Honey, let’s go do it again.
Yes Dear.
No Thank you Dear.
Go wash your face.
Pick up your clothes.
Who’s wet bathing suit is this?
No you can not have that.
How about milk instead.
Say Thank You.
You’re Welcome.
Wash your hands please.

What would you like for lunch?

Will someone let the Dog out please?
Can no one but me hear the dog??
The Dog needs to come in now!
Girls, someone left the TV on.
Did anyone feed our fish today?
Do you need to use the washroom before we go?
How about you just try?
Yes I do need a hug.
Turn off the lights please.
Time for dinner.
Wash your hands.

If I taped myself today, I bet tomorrow, I could just press play.
ha ha! So true!!!
You could not only just play it, you could sell it to every Mum in the world … You’d be a billionaire next month and having dinner with your friends on your private jet whilst the kids listened to the tape at home!
Yup. Pretty much. Spot on.
