Essentials

It’s been a long day.  As I finish up my shower, Samantha is sitting on the bathroom floor, entertaining her baby brother.

Sensing that play time is getting short, she starts fiddling with the door.  “Uh oh.  The door is stuck.  It won’t open!”

I am not in the mood, but I try.  “Oh no.  We will be trapped in here forever.”

She grins, “Sure looks like it!”

“Well, at least we have fresh water to drink, and a potty to use.”

She nods, supplying cheerfully, “And shampoo for our hair!”
