Problem Solving

Everyone has a list of things they want to teach their children. I'm no different. I listen and watch for evidence that I'm doing something right, so I can feel validated put little check marks on my list.

Yesterday I found some evidence!

Ian: I have to go to the bathroom.
Eric: Me too, but someone is in Mom's. (that would be me)
Ian: I have to go. (with increasing amounts of whine)
Eric: I know! We can pee at the same time in the kids' toilet.

Looks like I can check problem solving off my list.

Awesome! I was waiting for them to suggest going outside, but maybe that's just what I would have suggested to them... :) kidding, I think.

Boys are so lucky. I will have to say though that when I was little my cousin and i would share a toilet. Our bums were small enough then.
