kids say the darndest things...

In case you have not recently been around kids who are potty training allow me to bring you up to speed. Kids like to talk about poop. Ok, even as adults it's fun to talk about it sometimes, but a kid who is just figuing it all out is incredibly funny and candid about their fascination with "all things rectum" if you will. Additionally, because parents are so incredibly exasperated during this process they usually have no other recourse than to resort to bribing their children to "use the potty." At which point the child is rewarded with stickers or transformers or t.v. time or in the case of the conversation being written about here...GUM.
For the sake of anonymity I will just call this boy "the little" He made it very clear to me that GUM was his reward and he loved it. Bright Yellow gum is the best.
THIS ENTIRE EXCHANGE IS 100% TRUE and happened to me on Friday

the little: "do you poop on the potty?"

me: "Yes, indeed I do"

the little: "that's awesome"

me: "Yep"

the little: "do you have GUM at your house?"

me: (begin laughing hysterically)
2nd grade is so hard!!!
These two photos do not relate to the above story, but I just had to share it.

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Go rent THE MATCHMAKER. It will make you smile.
