"Mommy, I popped your space bubble"

You know how your personal space bubble shrinks when you have little kids around? Sometimes it disappears all together. The other day (read: every day) the girls were all over me. Elbow in my ribs, someone's hand in my mouth - it seemed the two of them were suddenly 5 of them and just as I was about to yell, "SPACE BUBBLE!" (they've come to learn that my space bubble, although very small, is very important and if I call "Space bubble", they have to back off and give me some air), Naomi took her hands and drew a space bubble around me and said, "Look Mommy, I made you a space bubble!" How nice of her, I thought... And then, poking her finger at me, "OOPS, I popped it!"
