Ten Things To Do When a Grownup Gets Grouchy

1) Find a broom, then go to your room, and give it a good sweep. 2) Lie on the couch, when Mom’s a grouch, and pretend that you’re asleep. 3) Take a ride on your bike, or take a hike, and best leave the grownup alone. 4) Empty the trash (but don’t ask for cash) when Dad his top has blown. 5) Call a friend on whom you depend, then go outside and play tag. 6) Find a four-leave clover, plan your next sleep over, throw a stick that your dog can shag. 7) Taking a look at a few picture books might pass the time of day. 8) Be cute as a bug, and offer a hug in a roundabout sort of a way. 9) Though grownup’s tics are not all yours to fix, you can always sing a song. 10) And remember that grouchy grownups don't often stay grouchy for long.
