Surprise!

Every mom needs a break during her day. One particularly stressful afternoon I escaped. I went to the one place I could close the door and lock out the activity - I thought. I went to the bathroom.

Just as I sat, I heard laughter in the walls. Banging and knocking began under the sink and out tumbled my two youngest children, ages 2 and 5, in a jumble of giggles. They were playing apartment under the sink and they were pretty pleased to see my shocked face.

Lesson Learned: ALWAYS check under the sink BEFORE you use the bathroom.
