"Honey, C just pooped all over the carpet..."
Panicked cry from the kitchen. I hear little feet come running, followed by the heavier, tired plod of Daddy's step. I step into the garden room. Sure enough, on the rug are two little spots so I grab the towels and the vinegar water and clean it all up, as I have done so many times before.
Funny, I was hoping to not have to be the one to ever deal with The Gross Stuff...those emanations of children that once would have me running to the porcelain throne with nauseas. Now it seems I am the only one who ever has to clean it all up.
Can you tell we are in full potty training mode yet again??? Once this one is done, NEVER AGAIN!!! I know, I am supposed to be enjoying this. As my wise Spock tells me, it is the MEMORY of these experiences which are much more enjoyable than the reality.

See - even thousands of miles apart our two littles can share trouble. Felisa peed on the carpet here today.
ResponderEliminarUgh, poop on carpet is never fun. Potty training can certainly squash any desire for more children. But, you're right, like childbirth, the memory fades....
ResponderEliminarYes, she-ra....still connected these Godchildren are...
ResponderEliminarGemini--I am DONE!!! Those memory-fading hormones that supposedly are released following childbirth never seemed to hit me...!!! NEVER AGAIN! haha
I helped potty-train my four brothers... Never again... yuck... stinky mess.
ResponderEliminarYeah, Cynthia...boys are SO much different than girls, I am learning!!! K was almost a Pleasure...or it's that memory-romanticising thing coming into play again!
ResponderEliminarHi d. housewife...
ResponderEliminarThanks for the vacation pictures. I enjoyed looking at all of them. Such a wonderful vacation.
Back to reality with the kids!
There are a few of those potty-training kids where I work - just think of me next time - you only have one!! Adorable eh!! (but yes I know - not a pleasant time.)
ResponderEliminarThanks, Belle. I had a wonderful time. Hard not to want to go back...
ResponderEliminarOkay, Chief, you've got me there. Only one at a time. I was so lucky to have K done before C was born! At least he's interested--pretty good for a boy!
One of my brother's would take his diaper off at naptime (after he pooped of course) and paint the bedroom in poop. It would have been funny, but he did this EVERY day. LOL
ResponderEliminarHe is now grown up with boys of his own.
