While conducting an interview with a renowned neurologist for an article, I was working remotely when my three-year-old informed me of her need to use the restroom and made her way there with an adorable waddle.
After some loud moans, she yelled,
“I did it, Mom! I pooped in the toilet! I pooped on the floor too! But I’ll clean it! Oh, I stepped in it!”
A tense silence filled the air as I became aware that the doctor had caught every single word.
“Ha ha,” I laughed nervously. “Do you have kids?”
“No,” he said, “and I never will.”
