Not My Department
A mom shouldn't have to teach her son how to pee on plants.
Actually, my son has never had problems with this in the past, but today I'd have to say it was something about the slope of the hill and the shorts he was wearing that made it impossible for him not to dribble on himself.
We went to the lake today. I got molested by four geese and befriended two others. At one point, I was - gawd, I hate to admit this - holding a drinking fountain on for a pair of birds! I couldn't help it. They were funny and it was amusing.
I don't know how hot it got today but it was absolutely stunning out! The lake was deep blue, the trees a vivid green, and flowers were in bloom everywhere.
There's no way I'll ever be able to teach my son how to properly pee outdoors. That's not my department. However, I can teach him to appreciate the beauty that surrounds us.

Sounds like you guys had a lovely afternoon nonetheless. When you are his age pee problems aren't a big deal, I'd imagine!
Posted by: moxie at April 10, 2003 12:14 AMMy ex-boyrfriend used to find a tree, face it, lean forward with one hand on the tree, and use the other hand to maneuver the pee spigot. Something about the angle keeps from dribbling.
