Kassidy's Dolphin

You all know we've been potty training...so yesterday I heard Kassidy say, "I'm poopin." And...she wasn't anywhere NEAR the bathroom so I told her to run, run, run to go poop on the potty. So, she ran and we got her situated and she finished the job. We got her all cleaned up and she looked in the toilet and said, "Look Mama, a dolphin!" I fought back the urge to laugh and tried to act as excited as she was. So, after we ooohed and aaahed over her "dolphin," I told her to flush, which she did. Then, she promptly said, "Where'd dolphin go?" Anticipating the cry of a sad kid, my brain worked quick as a laser, and do you know what I said? "All drains lead to the ocean." And she was happy that the dolphin was in the ocean. Thanks, Nemo. You're a lifesaver.

What a quick thinker you are! How funny. Now every time she sees a dolphin she will wonder if that's one she made. LOL. Love it. See you soon.

Too cute! Back when Wyatt was potty training he wanted to know where "it" went and we told him to a big tank. So one day we passed a big tank and he asked if that was the one but then he wanted to know what happened after the tank and we ultimately said that "Everything leads to the ocean!" HAHA
