Lil’bugs daycare caregivers can tell in a class of 18 kids which one pooped!

I can kiss Boo-Boo’s away.

Touche! It’s how I was always able to pick out my munchkin by scent within a broader crowd of similarly odiferous munchkins.

I think we’re hard wired to detect scents from immediate family members. We’re also hard wired to think nothing of changing our own kids’ diapers, but to virtually puke when faced with the prospect of changing those of anyone else’s kids.

Or maybe it’s just me.

It’s just like the daddy penguins in March of the Penguins, only with crap.

I would say something brilliant about how disgusting that is, but I have to admit that I’m blessed…err…inflicted with the same “gift.” I can smell my kid’s crap from across the room, and it definitely doesn’t smell like roses.

I enjoyed this….not the poop, but your writing. Check out our site this week for my take on my son’s diaper talents.

LOL!! I usually knew when someone pooped but I couldn’t necessarily tell you who did the poop without smelling around first.

Ha ha! That’s a cute gift. At least you don’t have to be embarrassed when the roomful of parents are sniffing around trying to find the dirty diaper and you’re the last one to realize your kid is the culprit.
