Just Because it Rhymes with Tiny, Doesn't Make it So

While waiting for a few prescription refills at CVS this afternoon, a bathroom visit was necessary. Ever try taking a one-year-old boy with you to a public restroom? If not, try your best to avoid ever doing so. Z-man, in typical Z-man fashion darted toward the open toilet bowl. X-Factor, in typical X-Factor fashion offered me advice.

"Hurry Mommy! Sit on the potty! You have a really big bottom and Z-man will never be able to touch the yucky water." And, again, typical X-Factor, she continued. "I'd sit down, but I just have a tiny heiny, but you have a great big one!"

Thank you, little one. Thank you. Mommy needed that little motivational boost to get her not-so-tiny-heiny in gear.

That is so funny! I'm sure she didn't mean that you have a big bottom as much as the fact that her's wouldn't do the protecting that was needed. Still funny!

Thanks Kel and Jaime. Yes, it was a totally innocent remark and to her, BIG is a compliment because that is what she wants to be. Oh at dinner tonight she was telling me about what an amazing painter Delainey is.

This gave me a seriously real laugh! I laugh because I have a 3 year old... We've had our share of 'say it like you see it' moments. :) Gotta love 'em.
