Friday, August 26, 2005Yucky Mommy!I have a two year old daughter that is neater than I am! Seriously, she will come to me any time that she gets a tiny bit of dirt or food on her hands and ask me to wash them. She just holds them up in the air and says "yucky mommy", knowing that I will understand her request fully. Her face can be covered with filth, her nose running and she couldn't care less. However, put a little spaghetti sauce on her hands and we have a problem. Last night, we had an interesting experience with her. My little one had a sick tummy. I have not been awakened in the middle of the night by her crying for quite some time. Last night, I couldn't help but chuckle at first when I heard her yelling "Mommy! Help! Tummy Yucky!" I went to her bedside and attempted to figure out what the problem was. She then proceeded to throw up. This in itself is not amusing, however she thought that she had to catch what was coming out of her mouth. Then, of course, she was more upset that her hands were messy than the fact that the mess came from her mouth! She was in hysterics until I could get her into the bathtub to clean her up. At the time, it wasn't funny. Now, even though I am exhausted from the difficult night, I find myself chuckling when I think about the experience. Yes, it was disgusting, but my daughter was learning that yucky things can come from her body. She didn't understand what it was, but knew that it was "Yucky Mommy!" and she has told me so at least a dozen times today... she points at her mouth, then holds up her hands to tell me that she knows.
