I was doing a presentation at my friends sons class last week with my friend
standing at the back of the class with her youngest Eric (2) when all of a
sudden he yelled out to his older brother, Nate I pooped! V

I took Sarah with me to an Ash Wednesday service held at our church.  I left
red-faced and embarrassed, but now that I'm in the safety of my own home,
I'm laughing--a little.

The trouble started when I gave Sarah a handful of crayons and a piece of
paper, thinking that coloring would keep her quiet.  She started tossing the
crayons around, and when I dived for one, my hand accidentally landed right
between the legs of my neighbor on the couch.  Fortunately, she was a
friend.  The crayon, however, hit the floor, and my guide dog decided it
would be a good snack.  (I'm still waiting for the rainbow-colored puke.)
So there I was, reaching down her throat to snatch back what I could, and
she was coughing, and my hand was dripping with dog slobber so that the
aforementioned friend had to hand me a box of tissues.

I thought the worst was over.  Then, right in the middle of the Communion
song--a soft, reflective piece of music, Sarah yelled out, "I'm pooping!
Poop out!  Potty out!"

For those of you whose children are not yet verbal, enjoy the peace and
quiet!
