Sorry Elle...

Ok. This is still part of the February trip but it totally deserved it's own post...While I was in Utah, I got to babysit a few times for Dave and Corrie so they could go out and Corrie could get some of her decorating jobs finished. One fine afternoon, I was doing this very thing and the girls were playing downstairs in the playroom while I rested on the couch upstairs. "They will be fine, just relax until I get back" were the words Corrie left me with...and that's what I was doing until I heard Mae say in her sqeaky little voice, "Elle!!! Why did you POOP in that?!? You're not supposed to POOP in that!!!" I'm pretty sure there was a record needle scratch in my head as I thought, "Did she just say POOP???" So I got up and walked to the top of the stairs and asked, "Mae, did someone poop down there?" She replied, "Yea, Elle did..." I know there is no bathroom down there and my mind began racing through all the different scenarios I would encounter upon getting down there...NOTHING could've prepared me...As I get to the bottom of the stairs, I see Mae taking "something" from Elle...It's a SNACK-SIZE ZIPLOCK BAG WITH A STEAMING HOT TURD IN IT!!! I know what your thinking and no, I'm not kidding. I took the bag which had been neatly sealed closed by Mae and dumbfoundedly asked, "Is that real poop?!?" I couldn't believe it... "Yea, it's Elle's." That was all Mae could say about it. I knew there must be more poop somewhere because how could a 2 1/2 year old "catch" her own poop in a snack size bag without making a mess right? WRONG!!! This girl CAUGHT her own poop in a snack-size bag without getting ANY POOP ANYWHERE ELSE!!! A miracle poop-tastrophe! That's all you can all it! Needless to say, Elle will be a great camping wife for some lucky fellow...that is, IF she can live this down and get a date someday! But this had to be told and shared with anyone and everyone!!! And so, I'm sorry Elle!!!
