Non-Negotiables

I'm tired. I've been up since 4am with the non sleeper. For the first hour and a half I was up with him I listened to him cry and whine as I:




1. took away from him the Fantistik bottle I left on the floor he wanted to guzzle down
2. removed him from the toilet water, the shade of yellow, he was splashing around in like a kiddie pool
3. launched like a rocket off the couch to make a save from the entire plant table from falling
4. took away the TV remote and the Wii remote he wanted to eat for breakfast
5. took away the long sharp metal spatula that could slice a finger off (I just found this spatula on the bathroom floor… I was wondering where it went)

There are just some things that are not negotiable.
