Things to remember

When I got into the shower this morning, there were four naked Barbies, hanging in strange positions from the towel racks, the soap dish and the faucet. Some were tied with hair bands, others with yarn. And who knows how yarn got into the bathtub? And why are all Barbies, even the mermaid one, always 100% naked? We do have a Barbie swimsuit or two.

My girls rarely get up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom. But a few nights ago Hadley got up at 2:30 am to go potty. Our upstairs is tiny-- two bedrooms and a landing and lots of wood floor. She woke me up. I had to go potty. Kassy heard us and wanted to know what was going on. I shuffled the girls back to bed and turned around, only to find Tom. Going potty. Of course. It seems that the mere hint of a toilet in the middle of a night causes all of our bodies to need to go.

That's what happens in my classroom. One person has to go to the bathroom and suddenly everyone has a bladder that cannot be held any longer. What is it with going potty? :)

Funny story.
