I have finally realized what my life has become at this point.
I am a professional wiper.
I wipe.
Wipe for a dirty diaper. Wipe for the 3rd spilled cup of milk of that supper. Wipe the counter. Wipe away a tear. Wipe the floor from Zekijah who snuck into the the cracker cupboard.
Wipe the counter again.
Wipe a bum. Wipe the shampoo bubble out of the eyes. Wipe a runny nose.
Wipe away another tear.
Wipe away the sleep from the eye in the morning. Wipe out when the kids are chasing me for tag.
Wipe.
Sometimes it makes me wiped.

So good to hear from you again, Mendelt.
No doubt that “wiper” is only one of your titles.
Happy Birthday tomorrow – March 20th!!!!

🙂 It’s good to hear there’s a professional on the job; all that stuff takes an expert! Makes the song run through my head: Wipeout! (doo, doo-di, doo, doo, di, doo, di doo…..)

Mendelt,
Happy Belated Birthday. I hope all is going well and you don’t get too tired of wiping. You don’t realize how little things pop up that remind me of Marisa and then you just sit back and think about the times we had together. I have a bag of M&M’s sitting on my desk and when I look at them I think of you and Marisa. She would always write on the return address M&M. She is thought of often. We are constantly praying for you and your children. What a wonderful gift from God they are.
With all our love, prayers and support,
Dana, Ken and family….

My old mother-in-law’s favourite joke.
Why did the viper vipe her nose?
…
Because the adder ‘ad ‘er ‘ankerchief
Sorry you’re feeling wiped.
