Benjamin : Oh no! Daddy! Something isn't right!
Daddy (worried, and quickly heading to the bathroom) : What's wrong? Are you ok?
Benjamin : Look! Some of my poop is green!
It wasn't just your standard run-of-the-mill green poo. It was bright, "hospital cafeteria tray teal" poo.
Daddy : Whoa Ben! What did you eat?
Benjamin (thinks for a couple seconds, then wide-eyed) : Oh! Guaca-mooo-lee!
We talked for a little while longer about how guacamole couldn't possibly be the culprit, and how it was probably something blue. Water from a blue cup? No. Blueberries? Probably not. But with Mommy's help, we deduced that it was the blue frosting on the cupcake he had two days before.
It brought to mind a tale about my own childhood that I've heard many, many times, but I don't really remember as I was a bit young. It took me a while to dig up this photo, but I will just let it tell the rest of the story.
