So, I'm not exactly in practice of knowing what to do when a kid starts saying, "Momma? I have to go potty..."
I peered at her in the rearview mirror. "Ok... we'll be there in a few minutes. Can you hold it?"
She wiggled around for a second before she started shrieking, "I CAN'T!! I CAN'T HOLD IT! MOMMA!"
I looked frantically for a place to stop so the kid wouldn't pee all over the back seat. "Just hold it for a second, please, Lex! Just one more second!"
"MOMMA!!! I CAN"T!! I can't hold it! I can't REACH!?"
Wha--?
"Um, what do you mean, you can't reach?"
She threw me a completely withering look, "Momma... the buckle is in the way."
Literal, always literal.

ReplyDeleteW/ Caly training now something you might think about it putty a potty seat in the truck as an emergency potty. We do alot of highway driving where bathrooms aren't frequent. So we had the kind that can be stool or a potty and the bowl pulls out like a drawer. We only used it for pee-pee emergencies and I just "Watered" the grass on the shoulder where we stopped. Some lysol wipes and paper towels or TP stashed in the back are good too.
