What do I have in common with Fergie?...Read on!

I should probably keep this to myself. This story most likely falls in the TMI category. BUT...that is what makes it funny. Besides, I must make sure the stories I write about myself are more embarrassing than the stories I write about my other family members. It is a principle of respect.
During my postpartum midwifery appointments the midwives would routinely ask a series of questions about mom's healing and then babies well-being. I was abnormally eager to answer those questions to which I had a positive response. It was like I was awaiting my goal star!
"Have you done the pee test yet?" the midwife who was leading my appointment asked delicately.
"Pee test?" I questioned.
"Have you tried peeing and then stopping midstream?"
Oh joy! I had! With success.

Near the end of our walk, the air started to turn cold. The kind of cold that lines your lungs when you breathe. We were about a block away from home. I took in a breathe of air. I coughed. My bladder was full. I hadn't realized. Too full.
"Chris," I giggled. "I just peed a little."
His laughter turned into a contagious fit of hilarity. Before long we were both stopped in stitches on the sidewalk.
"Stop laughing. Because I can't stop." I begged.
Chris smiled at me. My dribble had turned into a full blown accident. I had peed my pants laughing. So much for my early success! Thankfully, we were a block from home and it was getting dark. Next time I will pack Depends instead of Pampers.

Bible Reflections
Luke 14:11 (New King James Version)
11 For whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.
-I think laughing at ourselves is one way to stay humble and not let our mistakes (or accidents) get us down.
-I think laughing at ourselves is one way to stay humble and not let our mistakes (or accidents) get us down.
