Embarrassed by our kids

I was reading another friends blog, and she had posted something that I had seen quite often. It had to do with the things our kids can do, to literally embarrasses us to death!!!

I had to leave a comment, about an embarrassing moment I had with my oldest, Kirk, who is now living in Australia. Once I sent it, I decided it might be a cute story to share with all of you as well. So, I hope you get a kick out of it!

Kirk, 29 almost 30 now, had just gotten the potty thing down REALLY good. One Sunday morning, we set in church, in the usual pew, next to my mom, and dad, and granny. Kirk was a little over 2, and doing great on the potty, and letting you know when he needed to go. So, naturally, right in the middle of the sermon, he leans over and tells me he's got to pee. So, I take his hand, and we quietly slip out. Now mind you...we are sitting in about the 4th row from the front, way up front...not way back in the back. We get his task done, and I decide to go ahead and take advantage of being there, so I tell Kirk to stay put...which he did, for awhile. But, just as I'm about to walk out of the stall, I hear the bathroom door close, and I know he has gone. Quickly, I ran out the door, to see him ahead of me in the hallway...running. I can't yell...church is going on, so in a loud whisper, I tell him to STOP and wait for me. Of course...being in the terrible 2's...he doesn't. And I open the main doors to the sancuary, in time to hear him yell..."Granny...I peed!" At the TOP of his voice! I just about turned around and walked right back out. Everyone started bustin' up, and all I could do was shake my head. The preacher...Oh...he really helped too, when he reliped..."Well...there's no way I can top that!"

It reminds me of the old show, Kids Say The Darndest Things...with Art Linkletter...if you remember that it gives away your age.
