Poop

There are a 3 and 5 year old in the house. As a consequence poop is a regular part of our conversations.

Wg3 is officially potty trained, meaning he knows when he has to go and he goes. His recent trend is to hold his poo until just before bed and then screw around for 45 minutes getting the deed done. Even as I write this innumerable questions are passing from his lips.
"Why is my poop green Mom?"
"Because I made you green apple sauce today for lunch."
"So what we eat comes out in our poop?"
"Yes, honey."
"When's it gonna stop being green?" etc.....
So the potty training is a blessing, but has given way to an unsavory bedtime routine.

As for dg5, poop is a word currently used in every aimless sentence. When he talks with a purpose, it's all good, but when he's goofing it's poop this and poop that. Oy vey! I asked him why he's always talking about poop and he said, "Because it's funny." What are you going to do?
