Where has the summer gone?! Only 3 more weeks until the kiddos are back in school. I'm not sure how I feel about that since my baby will be in school full time! Oh, who am I kidding?! I can't wait! I truly do love my children and love spending time with them but really, how many times can 1 Mommy hear, "What are we doing today?"? I think my girls are getting bored and crave the routine of school so it will be a good thing for all parties involved.
Today's post comes with a warning, a TMI warning. You are about to read Too Much Information regarding my girls and their bathroom habits. Those that are squeamish or have weak stomachs, look away now.
Don't Put Your Face So Close To The Toilet.
I hate taking the girls to the bathroom in public. Only because I feel the bathrooms are never clean enough and it seems my girls aren't leery of what they touch. Also because (here comes the TMI part) they pull their pants all the way down to the floor while facing the toilet, shuffle over to the toilet while their pants 'sweep' the floor on the way to the toilet, and then turn around and hop up onto the toilet. UGH! Then, they stand up to wipe. TMI totally but it has to be told! Who stands up to wipe?! Then once they are finished, they bend over to pull up their pants and it is at this moment that I find myself saying "Don't put your face so close to the toilet." And this isn't a one time thing either. It's every time. Every. Time.
And lets not even talk about if the toilets flush by themselves! Holy Moly! Try squeezing yourself into a stall so you can cover the sensor on the back of the toilet with your hand so it doesn't flush while your child sits on the toilet and while that said child is sitting on the toilet, your other child is tormenting the one using the toilet. So then you find yourself clenching your teeth so that when you reprimand your children, the people in the next stall won't hear you. So you're squeezed between the stall wall and the side of the toilet, half bent over with your hand on the back of the toilet while disciplining your children. *sigh....yeah, I'm ready for school to start.
