Open Letter......

......to the woman in the Ladies room at the popular chain restaurant, TGI* (you know the one).
It was Sunday night.  I was the one with three small children, one in each available stall. 
You walked in, entered the empty stall to my left. 
I was pre-occupied buttoning and wiping the other two.
You, minding and I guess taking care of, your own business.
I looked to my left.
You looked down.
We both were in shock. 
I pulled the boy away.
You came out of the stall.
I pretended I was busy just to avoid eye contact.
You washed your hands and left.
While I cowered in the corner. 

Dear Lady in the Women's bathroom, I would like to sincerely apologize.  He didn't know any better.  But, rest assured, he does now.  The child will no longer be peering at unsuspecting women under bathroom stall doors.
How do I know this? 
Because we will now be utilizing those child restraints they have inside the stalls.  You know.  The ones where you strap your toddler to the wall to avoid situations like these. 
Valuable lesson learned here.

Oh. my. goodness.

Is that what I have to look forward to with this first little boy of mine? Guess I'll let dad handle up on the trips to the bathroom!

I completely blame the restaurant. If they had more public restraining systems, this would never happen. I can think of all sorts of places that could use one.

I found that thingy.. It's called a Babykeeper. Even if you don't want to buy one, you should look at the site. The picture of the kid hanging on the wall is hilarious. He looks like he's having a good ol' time. http://www.mommysentials.com/babykeeper.htm

Aint nothin' like a little head popping under the stall to shut off your waterworks!

I saw someone, somewhere giving away one of those things where you can hang your kid on a stall door. Seriously!! But I can't remember who had it. Me, I just carry duct tape. LOL

BTW Val, I'm featuring your awesomeness at Text Imps this week.

Seriously, they need to invent some type of harness system you can just hang up there on the purse hook. Is that cruel? :)

I think Caleb has done something similar.
