My Hand Isn't In the Toilet
As we were leaving the YMCA yesterday, after I had begun buckling them into their car seats, both of my girls insisted that they had to use the bathroom. They really could not wait. And though we live only three minutes from the YMCA, they insisted that they would have accidents if I didn't take them back in to use the bathroom. So, I unbuckled all three kids and raced them to the ladies' room. Virginia, a novice toilet sitter, kept sticking her hand in the toilet while she was going to the bathroom. Disgusting, I know. All the more disgusting because it was a public toilet! I shrieked, "Get your hand out of the toilet! Get your hand out of the toilet!" But it was not my shriek that silenced our audience (the bathroom was packed), rather Virginia's very loud response: "I'm not sticking my hand in the toilet, mom. I'm sticking my hand in my butt."

OMG!
Ahhh...so we both had bathroom-child related horror this week. Mine involved poop. Lots and lots of poop. Parenthood is the gift that keeps on giving.
I love VIrgina's response. That kid is fantastic!
hahahahahahahahahahahaha(on and on for the rest of the night)!!!!
Awhile back I saw Ella walking around with both her hands down the back of her panties (she may not have been wearing anything else). I asked her what she was doing and she replied, "I like to touch my butt." I think she was about Virginia's age. There - now, years later, she can be embarrassed, too!
What talent, how quick minded. Can't wait for the next and the next, and the next. Grandma Pat
