Prepare Yourself...

...what you're about to read is incredibly disgusting. Oh, where do I begin?

We were at the office. I was working on a patient's file and could hear Asher being loud in the back. So I told Tristan (aka: Lightning Jr.) to go check on him and to make sure he wasn't in the bathroom. Tristan, as usual, took his time going back to look for him, but once he found him, I knew it wasn't good. Tristan started yelling, "Gross! Disgusting! Yuck!" This was followed by peels of laughter. In the pit of my stomach, I knew what had happened. I immediately jumped up and sprinted to the back...where I found Asher...hands in the potty, splashing...with someone's pee in it!!! This is a public potty, people! AAAAAAAAAGH!!!
I always always always try to make sure that the bathroom door is closed because I don't want him in there. Little did I know, the bathroom was used, not flushed, and waaaay too appealing for a one year old. They always say to look on the bright side, I guess the bright side of this is that there was no poo in the potty. Praise the Lord! I think I would have passed out!

I guess it's safe to say I won't win any parenting awards any day soon. I just can't believe this happened! G-R-O-S-S!!!

Update: I found out today (the 26th) that it was Tristan's pee in the toilet. Praise God! I mean, gross still...yes. But at least it was four year old brother pee and not 65 year old man pee.

My stomach turned a little!! I know you were probably flipping out! That is one of those things you will look back on one day and laugh...but probably not today!

haha! that is so funny! i can empathize. i recently found maleah splashing in the boys potty (which can't be much better than a strangers). thankfully it was "clean" water but she also dropped her sippy cup in it! ugh! yuck! i've been trying to keep that door shut too. she usually goes after the t.p
