    Upon realizing that my daughter was using a half roll of toilet paper during each visit to the potty, I proceeded to tell her that she should only use ‘four squares because she is four years old’.

    Thank you for the laugh. I really needed it! Kids do say the funniest things. My 3-year old daughter knocked the broom over outside. Myself, our cat, Lucy and our 7-year old son, Will were all out there when it happened. My son then proclaims, “be careful Maggie! You just scared the hell out of Lucy!” I had to run inside to laugh, then go back out and tell him not to say that, while hiding my grin.
