The other night after I had put the kids to bed I came downstairs to do some cleaning. As is common at our house a few minutes later I heard someone upstairs in the bathroom putzing around. After 5 minutes I called up the stairs:
"HEY! YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BE ASLEEP!!! GET BACK IN BED!!! DO YOU WANT ME TO COME UP THERE?!?!?!"
Gabe calls down to me:
"But MOM!!! I GOTTA GO POTTY!!!!"
Because he hasn't gone 3 times in the last half hour I tell him:
"WELL GO ALREADY AND GET BACK IN BED!!!"
I hear the the lid bang up on the toilet seat and the silence for a short time.
I then hear the lid bang closed immediately followed by a HORRIBLE SCREAM. An UGLY scream.
As I'm sprinting up the stairs Gabe is yelling:
"MOMMY!!! I HURT MYSELF ON MY PEE-PEE!!!! I GOT A BAD OUCHIE ON MY PEE-PEE!"
Lesson of the Day: If you are only half as tall as the toilet you need to pull up your underwear BEFORE you shut the lid.

okay, this story was absolutely the BEST and had me laughing so hard! Valuable lessons for a mother whose little boy will also be potty training soon. I'll remember to tell him about the order in which to pull up and put down... :)
