The Mind of a 4-Year-Old
This entry may fall under the category of 'too much information' but it is such an insight into the perpetually amused (and amusing) and somewhat scatological mind of a 4-year-old that I had to include it. You've been warned.
Sam has mastered potty training but wiping is still somewhat new to him. He yells from the potty and one of us goes in and 'finishes' things for him. Just yesterday, when I walked in with the wet wipe, he proclaimed he was a big boy and should be able to do it himself. I handed over the wipe and left the bathroom (he'll tell you he needs privacy). A minute or so later he yells "MOM, come and see this." That really isn't something you want to hear from a 4-year-old left alone in the bathroom. When I turned the corner, he was standing in the middle of the bathroom with his pants around his ankles and the wipe stuck between his buttocks (his buh-TOCKS he'll tell you).
"Look," he said proudly. "It could stay here all day!"
