Murphy’s Law, Mother Edition

Section 2: Outings with Children

Paragraph 8
If you dash out of the house for what you believe to be a quick trip and thus decide not to bring (a) diapers and wipes, (b) bottle or sippee cup, or (c) change of clothes down to the socks, you will almost immediately find yourself facing (a) the biggest blowout in your parenting history, (b) an irrationally hungry or thirsty child who absolutely will not stop wailing even when promised as many bottles or cups as they can drink if they can just wait half an hour, or (c) enough pee to soak through an overnight diaper soaking the child’s outfit and overflowing his/her shoes.

Paragraph 9
When you, remembering Paragraph 8 and facing a half-day or longer day out, take extra care to pack diapers, wipes, bottles, cups, snacks, and full changes of clothes down to the socks, you will (a) be late and (b) not need any of it.
