AMEN! I think you captured it soooo well! Those are the sounds that help us remember WHY we love it soo much! Some of them are also that sounds that can curdle our blood if we let them. Much better to laugh; i think you're right!
I just read a quote that your post reminded me of.
"Of all the rights of women, the greatest is to be a mother."
--Lin Yutang.
We definitely need to take the time to find joy in our children and in our roles as mothers.
The "fingers under the bathroom door" makes me laugh. So true. You can't escape 'em. You are such a great mom!
