He Woman

posted by Momo Fali on June 27, 2011

The other night I was in the shower when my son nearly busted the door down to get into the bathroom. Never mind that we have two other functioning toilets, because when mom is in the shower there is no better time to fill the humid air with the stench of your poo.

I won’t get into the gory details, other than to say the situation involved the earlier consumption of a great deal of mangoes and a kid with sensory processing disorder and a quick gag reflex. I had to get involved.

With the shower curtain wrapped carefully around my body, I tried to reach across the bathroom to help him before mangoes started coming out of his face as well. But, my towel was just a little too far away.

I said, “Hey, buddy. You’re going to have to turn your head the other way for a second so I can reach across the sink. Look over toward the door”

He obliged.

But, as I began to pull the shower curtain away from my body, his head slowly started to turn.

Startled, I yelled, “Hey! Turn around!”

And, equally startled, my son yelled back, “Oh my gosh, Mom! I almost saw your balls!”
