Pooter

Tonight I was laying next to Sam in bed telling him a bedtime story about a fish named "Blubber" who cried all the time, then a crab came by and pinched him and told him to stop being a blubber belly and find something to be happy about. Blubber met a fish named "Pooter" (Sam's choice of a name--we have never used the term "poot" before) who tooted all the time and it made Blubber laugh and be happy and then Blubber had lots of friends because he was a happy fish now and they changed his name to "Happy". (Not my most inventive story, but after three years of story telling twice a day, I'm running out of good ones.) Well, Sam thought the farting fish was just the funniest thing he'd ever heard. He laughed heartily at the name "Pooter". And then he tells me "Mom, watch this. Watch this." Silence and then, "Phffffft". Yes, Sam farted on cue at the conclusion of the story. I laughed until I cried. Now, I have lived most of my life with a boy in the house and what I've noticed is that they all seem to have a talent for farting at will.

That is awesome!! I don't know what it is with little boys and their "creative" names but just the other day Paden named one of Kirk's video game characters Lametard. We got a pretty good giggle out of that one.

That is hilarious! It's a boy thing for sure. As Shane has told me before "it's the joke that never gets old". And it never will. They will laugh every time.
