Child and Mother


Wakes up at 6 in the morning. Wakes up at 10 in the morning. Cleaned the bathroom, and the kitchen. Have to use the bathroom, and eat in the kitchen Just finished laundry. I have no clothes to wear. Time for a break. Time for a break. Clean your room. I will later. I’ll clean your room. I’m tired. I’m bored. I’m hungry. Dinner is ready. I’m done. Take a shower. I stink. Living room is clean. I’ll go watch TV in the living room. Time for bed. It’s only 10. I’m going to bed. I’m staying up. It’s midnight. It’s midnight. Go to bed, child. I’m going to bed, mother.
