Pajinas are messy

Beautiful day... so during Santi's nap, I took the older 3 boys to meet their friend at the skate park, and then we headed to Starbucks afterwards to warm up with some hot chocolate. A group of about 8-10 pre-teen girls were sitting at tables across from us, so my boys were, of course, ribbing each other about whose girlfriends they were (everyone agreed they were Dominic's (😂). One thing led to another, and, next thing I knew, from the counter ordering my own coffee, I overheard Adrian comment that girls take a long time going potty because they have to sit down. That was my cue to head back to the table to redirect the conversation - or at least take the dba's down a notch. As I was walking back, Adrian goes, "It's cuz if they stand up they'll get peepee everywhere." Dominic cut in with "no one wants to talk about that", and, right as I sat down at our table, Adrian continued, "It's cuz they have pajinas like Mommy", and, as he is saying this, I am putting my finger to my lips to hush him even as he is now gesturing with his hands to show pee flying in all directions.
7+ years into this raising boys gig, I'm no longer surprised or embarrassed by much... it's par for the course. I knew ever since Dominic's "Bagina" proclamation at Adrian's first t-ball practice a couple years ago that Adrian would eventually have his own PSA to give on the topic. Pajinas are apparently mess-makers in Adrian's mind. I'm not sure where his personal knowledge is coming from since I haven't had a pee explosion in front of him, and I'm pretty sure no one else has either. Still, he told the story with great authority. I have to give him that. It has me wondering what bit of wisdom Santi will share on the subject in a year or two.

Stay tuned...
