Is he punishing me?

We eat out a few times a week... a lunch here, a dinner there...

My kids are well-behaved. We've gone out enough and taught them how to sit still and act like humans. Bravo us!!

But EVERY single time we go out, Buddha ALWAYS waits until our food arrives, then looks at me and says, "I gotta go poop." It NEVER FAILS. Tonight, he did it again. I literally wanted to beat my head against the table. Frequently it is Buddha, Cam, and me... no husband. I can't leave Cam, so I haul them both to the can. Buddha pees, then he farts. Never a poop. NEVER. He once accidentally shit his pants when he thought he had to fart, and now he's extremely cautious about farts/shits.

Is he punishing me? Does he do it on purpose? WHY?!?!

Ugh! Ava always does this too. She only has to pee, but still I have to drag all three of us to the bathroom and try to keep Ava's butt and hands from touching the seat all while yelling at Ellie to get off the floor, stop looking under the stall and don't touch ANYTHING! These are the little moments you aren't thinking of when you decide to have multiple children.

Don't talk to me about knowing the difference between shits and farts after my colonoscopy bowel prep the other day. It's so risky to guess so you just have to be prepared. :) I feel his pain. Not yours. hahahaha

and this bad mom has told her kids "no" before when they said they had to go. I'm sure people listening were appalled.

And here I get annoyed when mine get off switching seats back & forth under the table...
