Mike,
You poor, poor man. This is kind of closing the barn door after the horses get 
out but, I never leave the children alone without pants on. My daughter 
included. The first thing they do is strip nekkid and run around the room. 
Sometimes you can even hear the velcro ripping on their diapers through the 
baby monitor. Sneaky little kids.

  It was 4 O'clock.  Both of them were incarcerated in their respective rooms 
for afternoon naps.  Wife is out of town.  It's beautiful outside.  
Quiet......AHHHHHHHHH  what a time to relax.  

  Then I hear "Thump" on Kyle's floor above my head.  Well maybe the poor tyke 
fell out of bed.....maybe I should go check it out.  I climb the stares knowing 
he is just awake and playing.  Then I smell it.  I usually smell "it" when I 
enter the room, but this time I smell "it" in the hallway.

  As I enter the room in what seemed like slow motion, I smell "it" even more.  
I don't see him yet with the door 3/4 of the way open.  Then at full swing of 
the door, there he is wearing only a shirt and a smile with SHIT (not pooh 
pooh) totally covering his hands and feet with a nice brown dried trail down 
the back of his leg.

  Luckily he decided to play with it where it laid, rather than spread the 
crime scene throughout the whole room, but the confined area was quite 
concentrated with the brunt of it compressed into the carpeting as if he was 
imagining tamping the dirt around a freshly installed fence post.

  Please learn a lesson from me if you haven't already.  When your 2 yr old 
starts removing their diapers on their own, it is time to use duct tape to keep 
those suckers firmly attached during unsupervised times.

  After a 1 1/2 hour clean up and writing this email, it is time for a drink.
  Mike
