When you have sick kids, you are immediately required to learn a new language.
A language virtually indecipherable.
Where every word uttered is said with a whine.
Syllables are barely audible.
Consonants a mere mumble.
All expelled between hacking, vocal-box-shattering coughs.
This language is especially hard to learn when you are running on only a few hours of sleep each night,
Because you’re sharing your room with one of those cough-ridden offspring,
Because you don’t want her sister to wake up in the middle of night,
So instead you get to!
*sigh*
I sure hope this foreign-language course ends soon
