The Kryptonite

Every super hero has their weakness. Many would believe that a supermom's would be the constant screaming from a toddler. Surprisingly this is not the case. I have heard enough screaming through the years of doing daycare that I can drown it out. However, there is something that is much harder to ignore, certain children's cartoons.

You know which ones I am talking about; Barney, Wiggles, Calliou, and many more whiney ones. The purple dinosaur singing the song that ALL parents cannot stand, "I love you, you love me, we're a happy family..." And now you have it stuck in your head. The songs are what is horrible, when that is all you can muster out of your mouth somedays to calm them, you know you are a parent of a toddler. Don't fight it, you know you have been under the spell of those horrible songs.

Those songs and shows wear me down to the point that I cannot talk straight after the kids are in bed. In fact, I will find my ownself hypnotized in the show right along with the kids and forget to change the channel when the kids are in bed.

If I can leave you with one warning: STAY OUT OF THE ROOM OF THE CARTOONS.
