When you've got tots, your life really does become a seemingly endless series of treks to the potty, long waits (for kids to finish) on the potty and--gak!--mop-ups when the kids inevitably miss the potty.

Fortunately, that which does not cause us to break out the hazmat suits, definitely gives stalwart parents plenty to laugh about.
