&lt;p&gt;Many moons ago, when my son Seth was 4, I drove him out to the Chuck E. Cheese on the other side of town. &amp;nbsp;We ate some pizza and then decided to play some games. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;About two hours into our adventure, my stomach started making the same unspeakable noises that most of you heard during the bathroom scene in the movie &amp;quot;Dumb and Dumber&amp;quot;. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I grabbed Seth and told him we had to run home because, &amp;quot;Mommy's tummy was upset&amp;quot;. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the car, he could hear the horrid noises and see the noticeable pain/fear in my face. &amp;nbsp;After all, we were at least 15 miles from home. &amp;nbsp;Seth was concerned. &amp;nbsp;He held my hand and said, &amp;quot;Mommy? &amp;nbsp;Miss Meko told me how to make a tummy ache disappear.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;Just Breathe, Mommy.&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So I did. &amp;nbsp;Slow and steady, the pain was idle for about 8 minutes. &amp;nbsp;But, then? &amp;nbsp;It happened. &amp;nbsp;As we pulled up to our apartment gate, something happened inside of my lower half that signaled me to the fact that I needed to go...NOW! &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I drove like hell to get to our house. &amp;nbsp;As I was getting out of the car and trying to grab his things, the most horrible thing happened. &amp;nbsp;My body was so relaxed from all of the breathing, I started pooping my pants, err, shorts! &amp;nbsp;It could not be stopped. &amp;nbsp;I was trying to get Seth into the house, when weird neighbor guy came out to say hi. &amp;nbsp;He SAW it! &amp;nbsp;I could've died. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Seth's laughing and hading me wipes. &amp;nbsp;I was crying, wishing for death! &amp;nbsp;Later, I found out that I had a G.I. infection.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Seth still remembers that night and likes to tell all of the new people that we meet about the day his mom had an accident! &amp;nbsp;He gets NO inheritance!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I think that covers &amp;quot;raw emotions&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;silly advice you took from someone&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;most embarrassing moment as a parent&amp;quot;. &amp;nbsp;I'm off to hide in shame.&lt;/p&gt;
