Interesting park experience. I met up with another twin mom I have met recently at a nearby park. She had also invited a mom of quads that she had met. It was really nice talking with them and sharing experiences with them both. I have never met a mom of quads before and it was nice getting to know her in short sentences in between us helping our children navigate the play equipment. First impressions are always great and my first impression of this lady in one phrase is, "HARD CORE!" At first it was like I was star struck and it was so hard to comprehend how she did it! Carrying, birthing, and staying home with 4 kids for 4 years now. I asked a few questions and we got to chat a bit, but I knew she was hard core after this next experience. My daughter had to pee pee, she had drank like a camel storing up for a long trip across the desert this morning. She was doing her pee pee dance and the bathroom was pretty far away. The quad mom said, "Hold on, I have a jar in the van." My first thought was, "Whoa, lady that is a whole different level of hard core!" What what she came back with was AWESOME! It was like a female pee pee jar to prevent against splashing, with a screw on top and everything. She explains how she just stores it in the car and how it has come in handy so many times and her kids actually like using it. So, I asked Jae if she would use it, to which I expected her to decline with tears, but she was into it and said, "Yeah!" So sure enough we dropped her drawers behind a bush and let her do it. After a little hesitation, things came out just fine. No drippage or anything! I was amazed and impressed all at once. This mom is awesome and I love her level of hard coreness. I definately want one of those to store in the car for long trips.
I hope I get to meet with this mom again.
Check out the device. Just found it on amazon.com.
