"She Split My Face Open!"

"Go upstairs and teach your sister how to use her "Guitar Hero."

D and R go up and after about 12 seconds, the fighting ensues. I sit and listen as it escalates; screaming, possible bodily contact...finally a door slam and a scream of pain (versus the earlier screams of frustration).

D comes flying down the stairs with a bloody nose. Yea.

"What happened", I ask, wiping away the blood in a calm, resigned manner. "She slammed the door and it split my face open!", D says angrily through the blood and tears. "She just wouldn't listen to how I was teaching her and now my face is split W I D E open!!!!"

"Your face is fine; maybe you should stop 'helping' for the night?"

"Fine", D sniffs.

Why is motherhood so messy?
