Four Alarm

DAILY SNACK

“I’m just going to take a shower,” I tell him. “You can call for me if there’s an emergency.”

“If it’s not an emergency, then just walk to the bathroom and tell me what you need.”

I can barely hear him over the sound of the water.

“MOMMY!!! IT’S AN EMERGENCY!”

I turn off the water. “What is it? Is the baby still sleeping?”

“My firetruck fell off the chair.”
