Hold Everything

I've become the master of doing everything fast. For instance, I no longer sit on the toilet for 20 minutes and read Dwell magazine while the wind blows and the birds chirp outside the window. Oh no. Now it's more like, if your digestive system is not bursting and crying for mercy, and if you can't do your thing in 10 seconds or less, or before the kiddo demands his next meal and some cuddle time, forget about it for the next 3 hours. Just forget about it. Hold everything. Hold that thought, that idea, that lyric, that pee, that...everything. Your little one needs you to put the pacifier back in his mouth for the thousandth time today.
