Exactly. Apparently the format shall change when I get a chance to do something other than take care of others š So, here’s a little story for ya, in the meantime. My 18month old son has taken to climbing a chair and then standing in the middle of the kitchen table and “dancing”. Uh huh. So many jokes, so NOT the point. Anyway, he is a stealthy little guy, nearly silent in this act of treachery, yet he is also the speediest little bugger. When the comment about “not being able to turn your back for a second!” is made, it is in reference to this little guy. So, today, my husband like person, while in a state of total nudity, caught him doing this and responded! (that is the first shocking part of the story.) He grabbed the poor little guy off the table and rushed him to time out, his own balls flying in the wind. Husbandish person was serious – he meant it! What a dangerous thing to do! What a naughty thing to do! How dare he not listen! In the meantime, I am laughing so hard I can barely stand. I mention this for a couple of reasons. One, if my son turns out to fear naked people, not my fault. If my son ends up with penis issues, not my fault. It, no matter what happens form now on, will be forever his father’s fault! Woo Hoo! Hall pass for me!
Then, here is point number two…Husbandish thing and I give the 2 1/2 yr old and 18 month old a bath together tonight, and we did it together. I got our daughter out of the tub, dried her hair and dressed her for bed as he got the little guy out of the tub and dried him off with a towel. Now, all of a sudden, the little guy looks towards his dad and sister and pees on my shoe (and the rug). Hmmmmmm….Oedipus, anyone???
For future reference, ACTUALLY peeing on something isn’t a good way for male humans to mark their territory. I was mortified, rather aggravated, and then had to do extra laundry. A nicely written card or gift certificateĀ would have been a better choice.
