I never imagined receiving a call about butt wiping but that's exactly how my night ended.
I was cruising along in my new truck enjoying the thumping of the horses beneath the hood and trying to avoid plowing down any seniors while I navigated the huge rusting beast. I began to feel slightly nostalgic and knew the only cure was a visit to my niece and nephews. There was time to kill and anything i could do to anchor my role as the favorite uncle was certainly tempting.
I pulled into the driveway and was welcomed in a way that made me quickly realized a favor was about to be unleashed. Sure enough, I was recruited as a babysitter for an hour. I sat and played with the baby and listened to her coo at my goofy noises, bounced my nephews on my knee and chased them around the house with a fake sword.
I guess I bounced Jimmy too much.
"Uncle Georgie, I gotta poop"
He scampered off to the bathroom and a few minutes later I hear a demand echo from the bathroom walls.
"COME WIPE MY BUTT, I'M DONE"
Like a good soldier, I followed the orders of my captain and finished his demands. I grabbed some tissues from the wet wipe container and got him ready. No thank you from him of course, he ran out of the bathroom before I could flush since the sound terrifies him.
Tonight I got a call from my sister in law saying Jimmy had been scratching his butt all day and had a rash. Puzzled at why this was suddenly my problem, I soon got my answer.
"You didn't use the Clorox Disinfecting Wipes did you?"
Oops.
In my defense, it did say LOW STREAK FORMULA!

Hilarious story! But poor little Jimmy.
Funny story, but better pull down this blog before the kid can read and sue your butt :-)
