I did not flee like a 4 year old at a haunted house from a elderly librarian (See this post) who also did not make me feel like the worst mother in the world because my children don’t consume books like they consume ice cream.
I did not die of mortification when I took the trash to the outside cans only to turn around and see the oldest standing “at one with nature” in the front yard, pee-peeing just like the doggie in the grass. Did I mention this is the FRONT yard where there are no privacy fences?
I did not eat buffalo chicken at every single meal, depleting the childrens’ nugget stash because that is my craving at the moment. This act did not force me to have to actually cook all their dinners since the fast, baggy chicken was gone.
I did not have to collaborate this entire post with my friend because I am not feeling witty enough to keep up with the “Not Me Jonses”

My 4 year old likes to use the “pee tree” in the front yard. Someone made up the phrase pee tree to encourage all the little boy cousins to go pee by a tree in the woods at my FIL and MIL’s pool in the summer. So now my son likes to find pee trees in the most inappropriate places. It’s only fair that girls use pee trees too!!
My sons have NOT peed in the Walmart parking lot because I didn’t want to stop and let them use the bathroom inside the store!
