Dirty talk in the bathroom

Before you think I have turned my blog into a smut blog let me tell you a little story about bathroom conversations and my unexpected encounter with Jesus. I promise this is so worth it haha.
Jeremy and I went out to Walmart to do some errands. Where does he head straight to? The hunting isle. Me? Sweet! Perfect time to go potty and sneak to the movie isle 😍
I brush past a father of two kids. God bless this man, he was struggling with them. One in the cart screaming, the other about to hit the floor in a tantrum. With an exchanged glance of "be strong you got this dude!" I scurry to the bathroom.

I get myself squared away and directly next to me I hear a giggle. Thinking its a little one excited about something my heart smiles until I hear another voice say "Girls in my class are mean. They have lots of friends. They always tell me my clothes look stupid and mom needs to take me to get new ones." 😞
Child 1: "You're like an @$$." 😳

I snort laughed and then felt a little embarrassed to be "eves dropping" but it's hard to not hear anything when a tiny toot could echo like a blow horn in a bathroom.

I then wait to hear a mothers voice or the swat of a butt cheek. A stern "getting in to you" talk but instead I heard this....
Child 2: "I'm telling MOM!!!!"
Child 1: "Its not what you think. Our teacher told us a story about donkeys. Some people call them an @$$. That's what Connor said (they both giggle) neways, this donkey wants to be like the other horses but no one would ever pick to ride him. No matter what he did they didn't like him and the horses didn't either..."
Child 2: "Why? That's mean. Donkeys look like them just littler."

My heart knew where this story was going as I listened to this little girl explain it. The story continues with this donkey wanting to desperately be like everyone else until one day a little girl picked him out of all of the beautiful horses and he got his moment to shine....
Child 1: "All the horses felt really bad about not being nice to him so they stopped being mean and became friends. They knew he wasn't very different from them"
Child 2: "Yeah......You know that Mary rode a donkey when baby Jesus was in her tummy. I bet he wasn't the nicest looking...
(Insert my heart EXPLODING with joy and me high fiving their parents like they just won at life!)
Child 2 continues with excitement: "He helped baby Jesus go where God said so. I like donkeys."
At this point I am SERIOUSLY holding back tears.

Child 1: "Yeah! And nobody's better than God! He thought a donkey was good enough for his baby so it's better to be (as she lowers her voice with a giggle) an @$$ than like everyone else."
(Insert snort laugh number two!)
Mommy friends! These are the moments you don't see sometimes. These are the fruits of your labor. The very ABUNDANT harvests God said would pour out from the heavens above. He never said they would be perfect little moments wrapped in sunshine.
Sometimes it's dirty talk in the bathroom hahaha

So to the mother of those two sweeties in the bathroom stall next to me. You are WINNING at motherhood and I am SO THANKFUL to have been in that bathroom stall when I was. It was the most beautiful reminder that no matter how much we stand out or don't, no matter if we are picked first or last or overlooked and not like everyone else (take it from those little girls in stall number 2) It's better to be like an @$$ than like everyone else😉
