well there are moments in life that you just can't take back. they seem to move in slow motion. that was a moment i had on Sunday. garran had to go to church early due to meetings and so I got all the kids dressed and loaded them all up in the van. of course as soon as we get to church, briea informs me that she has to go potty. (we are potty training, so this was an important announcement) I unload everyone from the van and we head inside. Trying to get everyone in the building and through the same door some Sundays is like trying to herd cats in one general direction. I get everyone inside and push my was into the ladies restroom. three of the four go willingly. Cullan however absolutely would not go. he stood firmly in the door way informing me that if he stepped foot in the girls bathroom that he would get cooties.
I told him he could stand right out side the door, but that he had better not move. I get briea on the toilet and Kael is using the other bathroom. Ayla is having fun just wondering around the bathroom. Kael finishes and washes his hands. By this point I am helping Briea off the toilet and getting her outfit back together. She starts to wash her hands, Cullan and Kael are at the door arguing about who has cooties now, and I can not find Ayla. I look in the bathroom stall and there she is, her hands wet from toilet water (luckily clean) and in her mouth. (Yeah I know, insert gagging sound).
I dry her hands the best I can and were about to wash them when I got distracted with one of the other kids. Cullan was holding the door open and out she went. I hear her squeal with delight and hear Garran say "Hey A Babe". I come around the corner just in time to see him get a lovely open mouth kiss from her. He looked so happy. I thought for a minute about not telling him but then he went to kiss me. I said, not so fast. I would not be so happy about that Ayla kiss, since her hands were just in the toilet and then in her mouth! He looked a little queasy and that was how our day at church started!
