210. Mother's Advice

My day was really fine.
A normal day for me.
Nothing really going on.
Nothing much to see.

The pre-nap day was over.
It wasn't dinner yet.
When my child came from the bathroom
And her sleeves were rather wet.

I hadn't heard the faucet.
She couldn't reach the sink.
So how she's gotten herself wet,
I didn't want to think

But doing my motherly duty
I went to investigate
And wished I'd gone in sooner.
I'd gotten there too late.

As one mom to another
I'll give you free advice.
Children should be noisy,
Not quieter than mice.

When your kid is silent 
Don't wait out in the hall.
There's nothing quite as gross
As poop smeared on the wall.
