Parenting: Murphy’s Annoying Laws

How many of these have you experienced?

1. If you throw something away because your child has not played with it in months, she will ask for it later that same day.

2. If you successfully transfer your sleeping baby all the way from your car to her crib, you will sneeze and wake her up as you tiptoe out the door.

3. If your daughter spent a year begging to take ballet, the day you sign her up for classes and pay the bill, she’ll switch her interest to gymnastics.

4. The one time your child asks for broccoli, you won’t have any in the house.

5. If you tell someone your baby is a good napper, she will never nap again.

6. If the baby makes it through an awful tummy bug and you say out loud, “Thank God, it wasn’t contagious!”, the next day EVERYONE ELSE will get it and then the baby will get it again.

7. The moment you decide to get rid of all your baby related items because you won’t be having any more kids, you will instantly become pregnant.

8. If you pack up the entire house to go on a two day trip, you’ll forget something really simple. Like diapers.
