R-ism

Today: phone call from school (of course, I'm freaking out as soon as I see the prefix on the caller ID, hoping that R. is not in trouble)

School secretary: Hi, this is R's school. R has had a small accident in the bathroom and is a little wet. The principal said that it was nothing much, but R wants a change of clothes.

Me: Is he there? Put him on the phone.

R: Hi, mommy.

Me: Are you just a little wet? Can you make it through the day?

R: No, I have pee on my underwear AND my pants.

Me: Well, it sounds like just a little...it's like water and it will dry.

R: It's not like water! You can't drink it!

Me: (big sigh)

I finally convinced him that he could make it through the day and didn't need to change his clothes. Note to self: make sure he has an extra change of clothes in his backpack tomorrow!
