A Plumber and a Pill

Today my dad called a plumber to find out why our upstairs bathroom is leaking. The plumber got here before my dad did so I showed him how the problem is affecting all three levels of the house. The plumber went to work. He took things apart. He ran water in the tub he was up and down the stairs about a hundred times. My youngest son Ben was not happy about any of it. He growled, stomped around, and when he started to scream we gave him a sedative and told him he could sit in the car. We avoided a major meltdown. When everything that could be done today with the plumbing was done and the plumber left. We brought Ben back in and I gave him a bath in a tub that now has working faucets. Then he went to sleep on the couch. Busy morning.
