Never Squeeze Your Child - A Cautionary Tale
10:50 AMThe other day I took Jase into a public restroom at a local restaurant. Little did I know, that it would lead to a lesson on how you should never squeeze your child. Trust me, you will be happy that you learned this lesson. Let me set the scene for you. Jase went into a stall all by himself, because he is 6 and a big boy now. After some grunts and a few minutes had passed, I asked him if he needed help and this is how the rest of the story unfolded. P.S. I am a horrible artist and apparently I don't wear shoes in a public restroom.
After this, there was nothing left for me to do but lead my son past the other women standing outside the bathroom stall. I might add, they were not trying very hard to hide their amusement. So, what have we learned? Hug your child, tickle them, heck even give them a hand shake, but do not ever squeeze their bellies, because now you know what will happen. You're welcome.

ReplyDeleteI love that to top it ALL off, this happened in a restaurant bathroom. A great way to want to go back and eat more right?
ReplyDeleteOh Marcie, after so many years of having four boys and every bodily fluid and function under the sun, nothing phases me or makes me lose my appetite anymore. :)
