I sit in the hallway outside the bathroom, my four children taking a bath
Quietly working on my laptop as they play under the guise of getting clean
I hear my husband sneaking up the stairs
His quiet commentary begins
“The sexy husband stalks his prey”
He makes it to the top of the stairs behind me
Reaches out his hand to my bum and says in a high-pitched voice, “Goose!”
I kiss him, his face smooth after shaving earlier in the evening
He looks at my kindle sitting next to me and says,
“Oooooo. Is that a time machine?”
I love that man.
living peacefully with children
