Close Call

I had a close call the other day, which I'm sure many of you can relate to. I was using the potty in our master bathroom when I realized the toilet paper roll was empty. Don't you hate that? Just as I was contemplating running down the hall to the other bathroom, I heard Eli walk into my room looking for me. Great! I asked him to go get mommy a BIG piece of toilet paper. He was very excited to help and was quick as a flash. The piece he brought was little on the small side, so I asked him to go and get me a BIGGER one. He giggled and ran off, returning with a slightly longer piece. He was so proud of himself for helping. Here is the visual evidence:



Thankfully, it was Saturday and Brad was home - so I hollered at him to bring me a new roll. WHEW! That was close.

That is the greatest blog story I've read in a while! Too funny! And in case you are wondering, I've had an identical scenario at least once!

You gotta love kids and their willingness to help. I hate getting stuck on the pot that way, it happened so often I got a toilet paper holder so I always have a couple extras close. Although I still will forget to fill it and end up yelling for more TP. Owen and Ash would have a great time together wish we were closer so we could come play.

Gavin was reading this one with me and I thought he was going to fall off the couch laughing. I love kids at that age...they are so innocent and fun!
