today, I was the windshield

My job today was to stop everything, to keep balls from flying, kids from lying, food from dropping, milk from spilling, poop from leaking, cats from peeing, laundry from stinking, food from wasting, kids from tattling, I'm sure I could think of more. But you get the idea, right? It was one of those days. It ended early....bedtime came around just after dinner.
