Oops

About a year ago, Josh, Caleb, Emilie and I were grabbing a quick dinner at Panera's before Josh had to go to church for a meeting. He had to get going before we were done eating so the kids and I stayed behind. Right after he left, Caleb announced he had to go to the bathroom and since Emilie wasn't quite done with her piece of bread, I had her bring it with us. Once inside the bathroom, Caleb went into the stall while Emilie and I stood by the open stall door. Caleb was squirming around by the time we got there and was in a rush to undo his pants and sit on the toilet. As soon as he sat down I saw a yellow stream jetting out from where he was sitting and across my khaki pants and down on the tile floor. By the time I could get my mouth to open and my vocal chords to force out a scream, Caleb had finished pee'ing. He had the silliest grin on his face and was trying to keep from falling in the toilet while laughing hysterically. I turned my head to check on Emilie to see if she had been shot at and noticed her bread was no longer in her hand. In what seemed like slow motion I saw her reach her chubby fingers toward the bread which had fallen into the newly created pool of pee. This time around I was much quicker to react as I screamed "NOOOOOOOO!". And just at that moment the door to the bathroom opened as 2 ladies walked in to see a boy laughing hysterically on the toilet, a screaming asian with wet pants and a girl reaching for a piece of bread in a pool of pee.

I was reminded of that evening tonight after dinner when I heard Caleb yelling for me from the downstairs guest bathroom. As I walked over his way I heard him giggling and mention something about "it looks like a Christmas tree!". As I rounded the corner into the bathroom Caleb said, "I had to go really bad Mommy and I forgot to tuck." As I followed his pointing finger to the wall across from him I saw the 'Christmas tree'.
