Well, okay, it just happened as I’m writing it: about 8:00 PM yesterday evening. I’ve delayed the post to keep from stepping on the positivity piece. 🙂
Context: The boy has just had his bath. He is wrapped in a towel and sitting on the counter in our bathroom. He tries to stand up.
DAD: (stops boy.) WHOA. Stop. We don’t stand up on the counter.
BOY: I fart.
DAD: (stops another standing attempt) I don’t care if you have to fart. You don’t stand up on the counter.
BOY: I fart in my butt on my towel!
DAD: If necessary I will put you on the ground so you can fart. (Realizes what he has just said.) (Looks at wife.) We are going to agree I never said that. (Wife cracks up.)
I put the boy on the floor; he insists on being picked up and carried back to the bedroom to be dressed for bed. I pick him up.
BOY: Halfway down the hall, whispering directly into my ear: I like to fart.
Exeunt.

Well, you could have a girl and she’d paint your toenails. I’d rather have farting personally.

Yeah, farting’s not really just a boy thing (I’m addressing commenters more than poster). I have 3 girls and some of my best memories of my oldest daughter are from when she was a toddler and she used to wake me up by crash landing into me. Then we’d snuggle and fart back and forth for 5 to 10 minutes, giggling uncontrollably. Farting is fun. 🙂
