I have been a mollycoddling mum, and, I guess due to convenience etc., I shower Lil Princess, who has just turned 7, and Lil Man who is 9…
I know we need to foster independence, so this had been a task the last couple of weeks, giving their flannels, and towels, setting the water temp, and letting them go for it. It’s been a wet experience, wet floor, wet carpets, wet towels, wet everything, but at least they are doing it! I usually use our upstairs bathroom, and the kids are showered there. The downstairs shower room is Hubby Dearest’s territory.
As a little perk, he told Lil Man that come the weekend, he could start using the ‘boys’ shower. He just needs a little training on how to operate it… No problem… I’ll leave that mess for Hubby Dearest to clear up!
So today, the two munchkins were discussing the shower.
LM: I’m using the big shower at the weekend.
LP: No you’re not!
LM: Yes I am, Daddy said so!
LP: You don’t even know how to use it!!!
LM: Yes I do… first you turn the Bhangra on…
…a key part to having a shower obviously!
Hee hee! That is the thing with Hubby Dearest, he needs music everywhere, and has the Bhangra tunes on at full blast when he goes into the shower! So Lil Man sees this as an essential requirement for the downstairs shower!!!!
But LP is not finished…
LP: No, you need to put ‘Call Me Maybe’ on, then ‘I’m a Barbie Girl’ when changing!
Hmmm… I don’t think I’ve heard those particular songs coming from the bathroom when Hubby Dearest is in there… Me thinks she has her own ideas!!!!

Oh my goodness! I can so much relate to the bhangra here… Its good to know that I am not the only one who needs music while showering… 😁

Well he had his first solo Bhangra fuelled shower today… Water everywhere, but a very clean, happy Lil Man emerged from the ‘boys shower’!!!! Just like his daddy in this respect, they both take longer than the average woman in a bathroom too!!!!

Haha… I am never able to justify the time spent in bathroom… I wish we all were allowed to stay for at least an hour… For that’s the only time, I get the most wonderful and creative thoughts 🙂

That should be my own solo time to ponder… But if I’m trying to relax in the bath or shower, there is always one of the kids disturbing me… If not, the cat comes into the bathroom and perches on the toilet seat to keep me company…..
