Also, she seems to be incapable of softly closing cupboard doors (boom, bang, slam). I can't tell you how happy I am when she finally walks out the door to go to work in the mornings - of course, the kids are usually woken up by her unnecessarily vocal conversations with the kitties (because everyone know cats are telepathic) and door slamming ... at least the kids respect mommy enough to use soft voices early in the morning...
