Mother's have inspiration....

The Friday after school started, Justin had a get-together with people he works with.  Generally we don't make it to these outings because we have four troublemakers to deal with - but they were invited this time.  Before we left the house, I thought:  "I should check GQ's diaper."

I did not.

Upon arrival, GQ's shorts were completely soaked (okay, okay, so I am a slacker at changing his diaper... we're potty-training now).  I looked in the "Emergency Bag" which apparently has not been updated since M was GQ's age.

I suppose I should get over it.
