The fam and I took a trip to Burgatory today. If you’ve never been, I highly recommend it, mostly for the milkshakes. Mmmmmm…
Anyhoo, the kids behaved fairly well, ate their meals without trying to feed strangers at the table next to us, and didn’t even spill anything! It was, without a doubt, one of our more successful outings.
At least it was until I peed on my daughter.
Ella announced she had to go potty. Despite her not actually using the potty (she sits on it fully clothed and sometimes does her business in her diaper, other times she just sits there grinning like a Granny at Bingo), I granted her request and off we went.
The bathroom is beautifully tiled from floor to ceiling with extra special touches exactly at eye level as you’re seated atop the throne. As you faithful readers know, I use the hover method because it’s the clean and convenient option when using a public facility. So there I was, hovering, trying to engage my 20-month-old, but unable to take my eyes off of what appeared to be jewels spackled onto the walls. Who decorated this place?! Michelangelo?!
Me: Is that an emerald?
Daughter: Hi, Mommy’s bum. Uh-oh.
We all know that “uh oh” is toddler speak for “it’s too late.” And too late it was.
She was either trying to assist with the clean-up process or mistook me for a bathtub with running water. Regardless, I peed on my daughter today.
And how are you spending your Saturday?!
Oh! I forgot: I have no chance of winning or even placing this year, but it is super duper to be among the nominees of the Top 25 Funny Moms. If you feel like casting a vote and you’re kind enough to cast it for me, click below! (I may be listed under pending as I was a late addition!)

Jumpin' Jack Flash says
From my understanding, in some cultures, it is an honor to be pissed on.
whencrazymeetsexhaustion says
Jumpin’ Jack Flash, huh? Please keep the “pissing on people” to other cultures and out of our house, mmmkay?
stacyharris28 says
Oh my goodness… usually it is the other way around… the kid peeing on the parent. This was too funny though!
whencrazymeetsexhaustion says
I figure it’s payback, right?!
theroyaloctopus says

whencrazymeetsexhaustion says

What I Desired To Say says
LOL! Well at least you have a stooge to blame it on.
whencrazymeetsexhaustion says
Definitely! 😉
Mama G says
How am I spending my Saturday? Well, I completely failed to p*ss on one of my own, but hey, there’s always next weekend, right?
In other news – How am I spending my Saturday did entail me sobbing with two grown men… so urinating on someone probably would have been the wiser option. Meh x
whencrazymeetsexhaustion says
Nooo! I hope you and the grown men are okay 🙁 When in doubt, just drop trou and pee on your pal. Nothing says I care like a bit of urination.
Debbie McCormick says
Just another one of those things you can share when she is a teenager with friends over. lol And what is it about toddlers in the bathroom? Mine used to do that too and I would always tell them to GET away from my butt! Come around in front of me! (voted for ya)
whencrazymeetsexhaustion says
So my kids aren’t the only ones obsessed with potty habits, huh?! Good to know!
Thank you for the vote! I’m returning the favor to all Bloppies, too!
Janine Huldie says
I am with Stacy and have had the opposite occur and have gotten peed on by one of my kids at different times, but never the other way around. Very funny though and thanks for sharing!! 🙂
whencrazymeetsexhaustion says
Maybe it’s about time you’ve thought about turning the tables? 😉
nothingbythebook says
Still laughing…
Shel says
What a delightful turn of events! My son peed on me so much as a baby, I do believe it’s time for some payback. Only fair. 😉
whencrazymeetsexhaustion says
Hell yes it’s only fair!!! 🙂
themomoftheyear says
You are perfect! This totally made my day–and made me feel a little more normal as this is completely something I would somehow do!
whencrazymeetsexhaustion says
Just another great benefit of blogging: we can make each other feel normal 😉
sagescenery says
This was hilarious!! Especially when I got to the “hover method” part…and I wondered why your faithful readers would know that about you!! Then, I clicked on that and read your previous, very hilarious post about your Dad!
I was taught the “put-toilet-paper-on-the-seat” method…so I’ve never peed on my son, but about six-months ago, I was in the Ladies room at the Panda Inn, our favorite Chinese buffet…and liquid began pouring out on the floor in the next stall…seems the lady in there was not exactly “hovering” over the toilet bowl properly…because she says, “Gee, the hole is huge, you wouldn’t think I would miss it, would you!!” I just laughed, and never thought I’d have a reason to discuss it again!
Until I read your blog! Thanks for the laugh!!
whencrazymeetsexhaustion says
Ohmygoodness!!! A lady peed on the floor beside you! I’m tempted to say that’s gross, but I realize how very kettle-black that would be of me, the Queen of Grossness!!
So glad I could make you laugh. My job here is done 🙂
sagescenery says
Yes it is!
God bless you at your new digs…I’ll try to be technically-able to find you…or I’ll get my son to help me!
I voted for you!!
whencrazymeetsexhaustion says
You’re so sweet–thank you for everything! I know where you are, so we’ll keep in touch 🙂
flemily says
Oh that’s classic! With 3 boys, I’ve had plenty of times (when they were babies) when they peed on me, but never the reverse…sounds like you took it all in stride!
Jill Pinnella Corso says
Love it! Thank God for family members as constant blog fodder.
