Levi's shirt= Speak Your Mind
Levi comes running down the stairs tonight looking terrified and scared.
Worried and complex-ed I ask him what is wrong.
He tells me that he is worried because he can only get out a little poo in the toilet.
He asks me if it is ok that there is only one piece.
I keep reassuring him it is ok.
He is crying, worried that the ambulance is going to take him away.
He is acting like it is some disease ready to spread throughout his body.
He continues to ask me why his poo is not coming out.
I try to explain the whole process of how the body breaks down food-
How we eat food and the body needs to get rid of it as waste.
On and on and on........
He says:
"Are moms right all the time?"
I respond by saying "Sometimes I am right."
"Are you right this time mom?"
"Yep, I am- your poo will eventually come out."
He is still crying right now upstairs.
He does not believe me at all it seems.
Now he is asking daddy for reassurance.
As I am writing this he is telling me how weird his experience is.
He is standing at the top of the stairs telling me how it happened again.
"I only got two pieces out mom."
"This is the first night this has ever happened."-Levi's exact words
"This is sure wasting time out of my day."- Levi's exact words.
"Aww, that sure is crappy, son."
Welcome to life.

Lora, that happened to us when we took him camping...Oh my goodness...It was late at night and I was so tired, and he said that his Dad told him it was OK if he didn't poo for 4 days". I hit the ceiling of the trailer...and tried to tell him to listen to me and not to worry about his Fathers' comments...
Have fun...obviously he has some self destructing issues around poo. It won't last too long...give him lots of prune juice.
Ha ha... "crappy day"... ha ha...
Yah, I found you! Poor Levi; he is so animated!
