In my mind I hear the faint sound of Cyndi Lauper serenading me with "I see your true colors shining through..." Tonight, my true colors were all over the inside of the van- as I laughed myself silly singing the diarrhea song from the movie "Parenthood" with my kids. Most women I know, being of sound mind and good morals, would shun any hint of potty talk from their kids. I personally have always found the word "diarrhea" hilarious- it just has a certain ring to it, much more melodious than just saying "poop" or "fart" (all taboo in my home growing up, by the way). Grown-ups need to come out of their shells sometime and remember what fun it was to be little and how you could just laugh at the simplest, silliest things. What a great way to ride home in our minivan- just loud enough to disguise the noise from our decaying brake pads! Three cheers for hymns of loose stools!
