All kids love poo. Mine names his. This morning, we had the usual “just sat down for breakfast loo dash” and he produced three poos: a big one, a medium-sized one and a small one. “Like Goldilocks!” he cried.
Faces in Poos
But his fascination with poo doesn’t end there. You may have heard of the popular Twitter account Faces in Things (@FacesPics). Well, my son sees Faces in Poos. Just this week, we’ve had Yoda, Mario and Daddy (ok, I made that last one up). He has an amazing knack for seeing shapes in sh*t. It’s like a sort of inverse cloud-gazing (something he’s also very good at).
“But the Poos Will Miss Christmas!”
While we’re here, I’m going to share another of my favourite poo stories. Christmas Day. My middle boy (of Goldilocks fame) is on the throne. I attend to him and, without thinking – foolish mother! – flush the loo, keen to get downstairs and start Christmas. My son bursts into tears. “Why did you flush it mummy?” “Because we need to send the poos away down the pipe.” “But now they’ll miss Christmas!”
Some children learn about life, love and loss through pets or cuddly toys. My son is taking these tough lessons from poo. And why not?
Ha ha – love this! Just yesterday, my daughter had a poo and called to me excitedly to ‘come see my poo, it’s got a face and it’s looking at me’ – an invitation I clearly couldn’t refuse 😉
We are obsessed with poos in this house too (well in any house really – all mine are non too fussed where they empty out). They have never looked for faces though – might suggest it on a wet day to keep them occupied ha. So funny xxx
Nowt wrong with being immature!! When my daughter was four she was being taught to swim and she was kind of dangling on the back of the swim instructor’s trunks. I said to her ‘What the hell are you doing?’ because she was pulling them down. She replied ‘Just checking him for worms!” Out of the mouths of babes! #pooisms Come say hi! #pocolo
Oh my goodness, that’s a goody!
Faces in faeces, love it, x
Brilliant you cant beat a bit of poo humour – will drop some #poocorner tweets now 🙂
Hahaha!! I’m surprised he hasn’t asked you about Winnie yet!! Always have time for a poo joke. Thank you for linking to PoCoLo x
Ha! My son likens his to items of food and we all have to have a gander – this week we had a pineapple…eh?
I have no idea what anyone’s poo looks like – I can’t get out of there fast enough. Why do they have such a fascination??!
Thanks so much for joining in with Wot so Funee? x
Obviously I’ve missed this fascinating phase of child development as ours are all swiftly and unceremoniously flushed!! x
