Poop

There are many things about being a mother that I love....Sadie running to me when I pick her up at daycare.... reaching for me to hold her... the many kisses I steal... the nighttime snuggle bottle time... but while there are things I truly enjoy, there are many moments I would prefer to forget. This evening is the most recent of events I prefer to have erased from my memory...

while giving Sadie a bath, she pooped in the tub. Sadie has never pooped or peed on either B or myself which I consider lucky but to be our destiny before she is potty trained. However I may just have preferred she pee on me than have her poop in the tub. I was just suds'ing up the hair when it happened. She made a funny face, gave a little grunt and voila..the turd was there. It promptly started to disintegrate in the tub so I hurriedly scooped it up with Sadie's hair bucket (never to be used again). Some of it escaped the bucket so I shooshed it down the drain, cleaned the tub and placed Sadie back in. Then suds her up again. then rinsed her again. then suds her up again. then rinsed her again. As of now her toys are soaking in sudsy warm water as I am unsure she will ever use them again. ah the life of a mother.
