July 2008

Katie and I were at the pool.  There was a new rule that you had to wear plastic swim pants in the pool.  Katie not being 100% potty trained and me forgetting her swim pants, I told her that if she needed to go to the bathroom not to do it in her swim diaper.  I then told her that if anything got in the pool on accident the lifeguards would kick us out of the pool.  Anyway, oddly 15 minutes later she decided she wanted to go home.  I thought it was a little bit strange but just went ahead home.  Later that afternoon I hear her on the monitor at naptime talking to her dolls. Katie says, “And girls, don’t poop in the pool cuz if you do the lifeguards are going to kick you out.  And it’s gonna hurt.”  I died laughing.  And then of course ran strait upstairs to explain that the life guards were not going to physically kick her out of the pool.”  A good reminder. They really take things LITERALLY.  :  )
