So that’s why boys stand up…

I will have to write this anonymously, as it pertains to my son, and I wouldn’t want to embarrass him anymore than I already do.  So it’s a typical night, and I had just sent the kids up to get ready for bed.  I had specifically told my son his feet were filthy and to use a wash cloth.  Of course he says, “Oh, I will shower in the morning.”  “No way, no how”, I said, “just use a wash cloth and get most of the dirt off for tonight and you can still shower in the morning.”  Well, as my  husband and I were locking doors and putting stuff away, you know the usual night time routine, we hear our daughter yelling at him. Mind you he’s 11 and she’s 8, so we know nothing good will come of it.  My husband quickly went up stairs to sooth things over, and then I heard him yelling at our son!  What the?  Quickly goes through my mind as I make my way upstairs to see what all the fuss is about.  Well what to my wondering eyes appear, but my son wiping up pee in a puddle on the floor and around the base of the toilet.  My husband sees me standing there with my mouth open and a slightly shocked look on my face.  I’m pretty sure a sign was blinking on my forehead that said “what the…. happened!”  My wonderful husband who was now chuckling, had to explain it to me.  It would appear that my son for once was trying to multi- task, and was sitting down on the toilet to pee while cleaning his feet with a wash cloth.  Unfortunately he didn’t think about ”tucking it down”, and the resulting geyser went everywhere!!

I had to laugh…all these years I have been saying how easy it is for men to pee anywhere.  I guess us women have a little advantage, we can do our nails and many other functions while ‘just sitting’ there!!  - mom, MI.
