while standing in line at the post office
“Mama, do they have a potty here”
“No K, there is no potty at the post office, do you have to go?”
“I have to go potty, mama”
“K, didn’t you just go potty at daddy’s office?”
loudly and emphatically“Mama, I have to go Poopy!”
move up to the counter, hear snickers from the people behind us and the postal workers
“Can you wait until we get home? We are going home after this”
“Mama, I just stand like this”crosses legs “and hold da poopy in so it doesn’t come out!”
more giggles

“Hey Mama! der’s a cock on de wall! A big round cock!”
strange looks from the audience!
“Yes, K, there is a clock on the wall! It is almost one o’clock”
I turn to the other customers and say “you didn’t know the post office had such wonderful things to look at did you?” and one of the customers replies “I have never had such entertainment at the post office!”

“Mama I’m still holdin’ in de poopy, kay?”
“Good job K, let’s get home so you can go potty”
“Mama, I already went. I run like dis to de car” jumping, skipping and waving her hands “and all the poopy goes boing boing boing on my butt!”
“Thank you K for the visual”
“welcome mama”

For those concerned citizens, K did not go in her ‘big girl panties” She waited until we got home!

Addendum: Oh, and I almost forgot about the part where K told me “mama, I don’t want to eat my poopy! It’s stinky! SHOOOWEEEE!” Ahh, my little girl!
