As I strive to elevate my heart rate for the recommended 20 minutes of exercise, my children seem to have an uncanny ability to interrupt me every 20 seconds with an array of requests or comments. Here’s a breakdown of the 34 things my little ones ask of me while I’m trying to work out:
- A snack, please.
- Can you turn on the TV?
- Someone needs a diaper change.
- Change the channel on the TV.
- Create a better story than the one on TV.
- Another snack, because the last one was ages ago. How about seven pieces of bacon?
- Please look at this boo-boo. It’s right there!
- Someone’s foot is itching.
- Can you get Connect Four from the shelf?
- Who is red and who is black in Connect Four?
- An egg, a cotton ball, and the pillows from the bed.
- One of your bras, it’s for “experiments.”
- Alert! The younger sibling just ate a cotton ball.
- What do you think happens if you put a raw egg in a bra?
- Call Emma’s mom for a playdate, like right now because I haven’t seen Emma in ages!
- Let’s choose some ninja-themed paint colors for our room.
- Someone smells bad.
- Boot up the computer for a game, please.
- More bacon, please!
- Just open the email so I can write “happy birthday” to grandma.
- What’s the secret code for the credit card?
- What does “life-size” mean?
- $124, please.
- Another snack!
- What’s a “pen pal”?
- What’s a “loosie”?
- Can you screech like a Tyrannosaurus rex?
- Point the computer camera at me for two seconds!
- Snack time again!
- What is a “hashtag”?
- “Hah hah #wobblymama is trending,” they say.
- “Look mommy, it’s you!”
- Can you help me put away the yoga mat?
- I refuse to eat dinner!
In summary, balancing exercise with the needs of children can feel like an impossible task. Each workout session is often interspersed with a barrage of requests from snacks to imaginative play. Understanding these interruptions can help parents navigate their fitness goals while managing family dynamics.
