stranded...

The other day "friend Zach" was at our house playing.
Sam (& I thought Zach, too) went outside to the neighbors house.
Matt & Zach were gone.
Lizzie was asleep.
The house was quiet.
Completely quiet...
...for about 15-20 minutes.
I was in HEAVEN!
I blogged (I seriously need to think of something else to do with my "quiet time")
"Friend Zach's" mom came over.
As she was walking down the hall, past the bathroom, she heard a voice crying..."Mom!"
What??
"Freind Zach" was in the bathroom. "Friend Zach" had been in the bathroom (needing T.P.) for 15-20 min.
When we asked him why he didn't yell for me (I was just in the other room)...
...he said, "Lizzie was asleep & I didn't want to wake her up."
POOR "friend Zach"!!!
*Notice the tear in his eye...

Okay. That's hilarious. How nice that he was willing to sit on the pot as not to wake the napping child. Seriously.

Great that you snapped a picture of his agony. Ha ha!

Dang it!! Diane stole my song....I would sing it every year and teach it to the yearlings much to the other adults dismay. tee hee.

Sad boy, you KNOW they discussed you at dinner at their house that night!

poor friend Zach!! I wonder how long he would have sat there waiting if his mom hadn't showed up! I bet he'll look before he leaps next time he's at your house!
