Well, as the mom of 4, I have too many to count, but I''ll also limit it to 1 per child:
1. My oldest are twins, and I used to sit them both in the double seat on the front of the grocery cart when I went grocery shopping, with my purse between them. I guess they were about 9 months old, and I was in front of the cart putting all of my items up on the conveyor belt, when first a tampon, then an opened upwrapped sanitary pad come passing me by on the conveyor belt. Little ones were occupying their time going through my purse, and decided to help mommy by putting all of it''s contents onto the belt.
2. When they were 3, I took them into a stall at the mall to use the bathroom. While one was up on the potty, the lady in the stall next to me was apparently having some stomach issues, and was lighting matches to disguise the smell. Well, my little angels smelled the smoldering matches, and thought she was roasting hotdogs (we used to go camping quite a bit). They proceeded to have a very LOUD discussion between the two of them about how come she gets to roast hotdogs in the potty, why don''t we roast hotdogs in the potty, how much they would love a hotdog right now, how fast can they go so that they can join her in her hotdog roast, where did she get the hotdogs and the stick...and on and on, all the while muffled snickers are coming from all of the other stalls, including myself. That poor woman I''m sure stayed in her stall until everyone had left.
3. My 4 1/2 year old, when she was about 18 months, was in love with trucks, but she had a hard time pronouncing it...her version replaced the "tr" with an "f". While in a very crowded line at the bank one day, one of those monster trucks with the loud exhaust went by outside, and my precious angel pointed and yelled at the top of her lungs "LOUD *UCK, LOUD *UCK", about 3 million times.
4. My youngest who is almost 3, is potty training, thus potty actions are a big discussion topic. While in line at the deli at the grocery store, she smelled what she thought was someone passing gas. Well, the interagation began. She started with me "Did you fart mommy, I smell a fart mommy, I didn''t fart mommy, did you fart mommy?", then onto the lady next to us in line "did you fart lady, I smell a fart lady, it wasn''t me, do you think you farted lady?", the man behind us, the deli counter clerk, and so on. I was so wanting someone to admit so she would stop.
