Public Bathroom 101

We went to the Gaylord Texan to visit ICE last Sunday. The hotel was decorated so beautifully. As we walked in, I was holding Lauren's hand as Kirk held Daniel's. My
3 1/2 year old, Lauren says, "Mommy...this is so beautiful in here." "I have never seen anything decorated like this...It is gorgeous!" There were people around and one man heard how taken away she was with her 20-something year old vocab and he and a few others just laughed. As we proceeded to walk to the ICE exhibit, we had to make the 3 1/2 year old detour...the public restroom. I don't think I have visited so many public bathrooms since I was her age. Kirk and Daniel waited patiently (as they always do) It always takes Lauren 20 minutes to size up and comment on decor, faucet, toilet flusher, soap dispenser, paper towel dispenser, and sinks. There were only two stalls and about 6 other women in line. We walk in only to have Lauren state, "It smells like someone died in here!" I wanted to laugh and crawl under a rock all at the same time. The other women found it quite humorous and as our turn approached, we proceeded into the stall. As I prepared her to use the restroom, she informed me she had to go "poo-poo". She then asked if I wanted to play a game. Before I could answer, she proceeded with "Guess what kind of animal my poopy is going to be when it comes out". I am just melting at this point....telling her shhhhh-just go potty...Daddy and Daniel are waiting for us. She says, "It is brown, fluffy, and I think REALLY BIG MOMMY!" "It is going to be a rabbit". When she finishes her business, she tells me to look into the potty and decides for the both of us that she sees a dolphin. Although it takes much to get me embarrassed, this did it. Only because she was loud about the whole thing. As we left the bathroom, I thought to myself....another priceless moment. Our children bring so much love and laughter to our household. I cannot wait til Daniel is potty-trained and Kirk gets a taste of this!

The Beatles for Kids

Back at school after a week off. Lots of R&R. I was wondering what could be wrong this morning as my cell rang and saw it was my handsome hubby! It was about the kids....uh-oh
My two year old, Daniel received a gift that every two year old would want....at least a two year old who is "with the times".
He was given an autographed poster of "The Wiggles"....Yes, The Beatles -for kids of today!
Signed by Anthony, Sam, Murray, Jeff and Captain Feathersword...
It came from a "contact" of the Wiggles. My son is thrilled. I am thrilled. I cannot wait to take it for a mat and frame to add to his wall in his room.
I cannot wait to see his little face every night as he goes to bed and points at it and says, "My Wiggles"!
I cannot tell you how precious it was to have him "high fived" by Jeff at the last concert we attended. These men are idols in the eyes of my son..(they are GREAT in concert too-we have seen them twice)
I cannot wait for him to go to college so I can plant it in his dorm room or apt.
A mother's love....for her son and...................... The Wiggles.
