I don't want to drive up to the pearly gates in a shiny sports car, wearing beautifully, tailored clothes, my hair expertly coiffed, and with long perfectly manicured fingernails. I want to drive up in a station wagon that has mud on the wheels from taking kids to scout camp. I want to be there with grass stains on my shoes from mowing Sister Schenck's lawn. I want to be there with a smudge of peanut butter on my shirt from making sandwiches for a sick neighbor's children. I want to be there with a little dirl under my fingernails from helping to weed someone's garden. I want to be there with children's sticky kisses on my cheeks and tears of a friend on my shoulder. I want the Lord to know I was really here and that I really lived."

Holy Crap!!

Me and my neighbor decided that we needed a date with our husbands so we talked earlier this week and planned that we would trade babysitting. She has two little girls and so do I. Perfect. I was to take her girls Friday and she would take mine Saturday.
So today she brought them over and as she was leaving she says,.... "----- needs to go to the bathroom. Just make sure she flushes and washes her hands. " So I do and all is fine.
Then about 5 mins. later I notice that someone is in the bathroom. I knock on the door. No answer. So I open the door.... and that's when the smell hits my pregnant nose. POOP!
I open the door the rest of the way and find, poop on the floor, poop ON (not in) the the toilet, and worst of all, poop all over the little girls hands and feet!! Yes, I said feet. So I striped her down and let her shower herself while I put her clothes in the washer. I'm laughing about it now but I can tell you, it's a good thing I'm a Mom in the first place or I think I would have thrown up! I am still not really sure how she managed to get it everywhere but IN the toilet, but she did.

Oh how I can relate! There have been MANY times that Dominic "painted" his bed room walls with poop! I thought he would never get trained. I still have night mares! :D
