Anybody remember the scene from Caddyshack when the kid
slipped the Baby Ruth into the pool?
Another kid was swimming by with his goggles and snorkel, sees it, yells
“DOODIE!” and all the kids jumped out as quickly as possible. Anyone?
On Wednesday, we took the kids to the Aqua Palace
again. Aaron and I both stayed with them
in the morning and ate lunch with them.
After lunch, Aaron went to work in the café that had Wi-Fi – here they
use the short i sound, not the long i sound (Wee – Fee as in Pee – pee). Anyway, I took the boys back to the kids’
area. There were actually quite a few
people there and even though the kids weren’t playing with each other (see
Aaron’s post) the boys were entertaining themselves with a beach ball and most
people would even throw it back to them if it got away from them. If the ball went near a couple people, they
would look at our boys with a look “how could you bring something like that to
the pool?” I was sitting out, letting
the boys have fun. After we’d been there
about an hour, I notice a mom and her kid get out and the mom went off around
the corner. Then I saw a boy & a
girl (maybe college age) come around the corner with a pail and a dust
pan. Everybody started talking really
loudly in Hungarian and kids started scrambling to get out of the pool
ASAP. I got this pit in my stomach and
went to get our boys out of the pool. I
turn to look at the kids having to scoop the poop from the pool and the boy dry
heaves a little and the girl is making a “GROSS” face. I sat the boys down and asked them if they
went kaka in the pool. Both nodded their
heads. I thought that maybe they
misunderstood and thought I was asking them if they needed to go not did they
already go. So I asked Drew and he shook
his head no. Then I look at Sam and his
chin his down touching his chest. I
asked, “Sam, did you go kaka in the pool?”
He said “Igen” (yes).
And there it was. The
proof that he did indeed kaka in the pool.
I am mortified! I clean him up as
best I can, run back to get our stuff and Drew and leave to get Aaron. I told him what happened and he hides his
laugh from Sam, because Sam loves to have people think he’s funny.
I’m wondering if I can show my face at the Aqua Palace
again. Luckily, I think most people
there are on holiday, so if we go back next week, more than likely, no one will
still be around.
Here’s what I can’t figure out – these 2 boys love to go to
the bathroom and tell us 50 times a day that they have to go, but once we get
to the pool, neither one will say anything to us about going to the bathroom.
Do I dare take Sam back?
Let me know your opinion.
Yes, I think so. The water is warm and he may not realize when he goes. You might talk to him before he goes in the water and ask him if he needs to go.
ReplyDeleteCan you find the swim type pullups there? that might be a solution, if they are available.
ReplyDeletePull ups are a great idea. Of course, go back. They understand what happened, and you had to leave, so that made an impact as well.
