thought I would share this.

 

my niece was baby sitting a little boy today. about 3 years old.

 

I stopped by to bring her and him some mcdonalds fries and hamburger she wanted.

 

while sitting there and talking to her

little Jason ran up to us and said I am a big boy now?

 

I asked him why are you a big boy now?

 

he said I went potty by myself.

 

I said you did? he said yes I went poop.

 

now my niece and I are looking at each other and thinking . where did he go poop?

 

where sitting where we could see the bathroom and he did not pass us?

 

so we went looking and asked him to show us where he went poop?

 

sure enough he went poop in the cat litter box.

 

could have been worse he could have went pee on the big tree plant like the dog does LOL

Many years ago I stopped at a car lot to look at a vehicle.. Had the wife and kids with me.. Didnt realize that my son had followed me out of our van to assist in the evaluation.. Even though he was only 3 or 4 years old he already liked to crawl under cars with me and stuff.. I was on my back, laid down, resting across the drivers side floor mat looking under the dash when I heard, what sounded like water running.. I'm like,, what the heck could that be.. Twisting my head back and forth,, listening carefully,, the distinct sound of water running.. As I crawled rearward and leaned up to find my little buddy, his back leaned against the drivers door, facing the road, freely watering the grass where the car was sitting... I gotta be honest here though,, in all fairness to the Beagles our kids had for pets, it wasnt them that taught that little feller to go outside in the bushes..

At least when things happen with little fellows its cute but not when its not a little fellow. I was out on a service call one time. I was laying under a Western star transport truck, doing some repair work when all of a sudden my back started to feel extremely wet and warm. Turns out the driver of the truck decided he had a full bladder and needed to go pee. As is normal for truck drivers he preceded to use the space between the rear drive tires as his personal urinal, which happened to be uphill from were I was laying under the truck on the paved parking lot. Need I say more, and yes he still lives but only by the shear luck of my showing superior control and restraint.
