I knew something was wrong when...

My happy boy was not so happy........
So Sunday I am usually at church watching children. You will most likely find me by myself as my husband, a realtor, usually has to work with clients on the weekends. So imagine my surprise when this last Sunday it was not my Sunday in childcare and my husband was able to go to church. So we went for a bike ride super early to make sure that we had time to get ready and go. I was so excited...I love going to church as a family and it had been far too long.
So Dave and I ran around getting ready and then it was time to get Jack dressed. Now mind you, Jack loves church and is a very easygoing , happy child 99% of the time. We gave him several choices of shirt to wear as we had already gotten his shorts on. He was saying No to all of them. As we tried to talk Toddler to him about church and a muffin and his friends he was still completely upset. He was standing on one side of his room just crying his eyes out. This went on for far too long and time was awasting. Finally, I took him to his changing table to check his diaper...Sure enough he was completely constipated with a piece of poop stuck. I asked Dave what we should do and he said " let the poop pass." Jack just kept crying and crying. I knew that he was in no condition to go to church. And I have to say Mama was very disappointed and felt like crying herself.
So I went and did dishes. If you ever see me doing housework you know I am either mad or sad. Jack was still in his room and about 1/2 hour later he was back to his normal happy and cheerful self and the poop had passed. I decided to let go about the disappointment of going to church so that we could have a Happy Family Sunday. After all Sometimes "Poop Happens and sometimes it just gets stuck" .
