I was reminded of a funny story that happened a couple of years ago. Hubby and I were out of town, taking Little One with us, and my sister-in-law was babysitting the boys. I was talking to her on the phone when I heard some yelling in the background. My SIL excused herself for a minute and when she returned she reported that Freckles had flushed a pair of #1's underwear down the toilet! SIL was understandably flustered and wasn't sure what to do. I surprised myself by calmly asking if the toilet had clogged and when she told me it hadn't I shrugged and said, "Oh well, there's nothing we can do about it now." It was at that point that I realized #1 I was becoming a seasoned mother of boys, and #2 I deal with situations in a much calmer manner over the phone than in person!
