Who knew reading in the bathroom was genetic

Yup! Yours truly has been enjoying one of the great rights of passage for every parent.
And of course for every child.

Morgan has been potty training and while her momma has had the brunt of this and has done an excellent job I have had the joy of running through a grocery store trying to find the bathroom!

Here’s a word of new wisdom to new parents.
When your little “mini me” hits this stage not only do you want to preemptively have them use the “potty” before you go anywhere and carry lots of extra “undies” or “panties” (this depends on the child… pun intended) but when you enter into an establishment, make your first order of business to identify and locate the bathroom!

Think of it like looking for the emergency exits on a plane.
Your exits are here, here and here.

I only wish we had that many options for bathrooms in a mall or at Target!

There’s truly nothing more exhilarating than the time bomb that is your child’s bladder!

In fact its almost like some old school board game that I played as a child.
I cant really remember what the name of the game was because I must have surpressed the memory from shear terror.

I just remember playing along being totally content and then BAM “holy crap” some buzzer would explode in my ear!

Yeah. It’s like that.

These little bladders are truly land mines with cute little chubby legs.

Anyway, the point of this rambling is that when it’s all said and done we should never forget.

The bladder is the great equalizer.

We all must learn to control it and then we all learn to deal with losing that control when we get older.

LOL

Yeah. I said it.

As I am sure that this post has changed your life… let me know your thoughts!
