Do You Ever Wonder How It Feels?

This afternoon, my younger brother asked me, "Have you ever wondered how that feels?" I had just mentioned that I felt my infant's diaper grow warm - an indication that she had just emptied her bladder.
"You mean to pee in my clothes?" I asked.
"Yes." he replied.
Now, I guess I have never, ever considered this. Nor have I any memory of doing it from my years in diapers as an infant/toddler [does anyone remember that far back?]. But my sister chimed in that some male friends of hers back during her college years had purchased Depends and tried them on to experience just this feeling. She said they put on the Depends and got into a bathtub and poured water in them. Warm water, I assume.

Boy, college kids [guys in particular?] will try the most unusual things.
Personally, holding a small baby and feeling her diaper warm up is about as close as I feel the need to come.

Here it goes

Well, here it is, my own blog.
I am a mom of 2 little girls - one 8 months and one 3 and a half. Three years old is a tough age, for both of us. So, instead of screaming at her or dropping her on her head, I will let loose on this forum. Becca is the challenging one. Diana is the adorable 8 month old who just learned to crawl and is a momma's girl. It is a scary thought to contemplate that she will one day be 3 as well!

Today we are in Columbus, Ohio visiting relatives. Becca likes to spend time half-naked playing with water in any form she can reach - the bathroom sink, the snow outside, the bathtub. Even though the house here is drafty and very cold, she hasn't worn shoes inside for more than 5 minutes. And right now, she is wearing just a paint smock while she does watercolors. Brrrr!
Diana is not feeling well; I think she has an ear infection. She has been sleeping a lot.

It is hard to sit here and even imagine what it must be like to VOTE for the first time in your entire life. To have some fear for your safety in doing it. To wonder what your life will be like in a year and know that it has already changed 200% in the past year. To see real live guns in the hands of people you see in the streets (soldiers or not).
It makes me, Lori, think about how wonderful God has been to me, how blessed my life is. I have my girls, my husband, a wonderful house, cars, a large supportive family.
And freshly baked chocolate chip cookies.

(When you are sleep deprived from getting up 3 times at night to nurse or calm a sick child, your mind tends to jump from topic to topic. Also happens when I have to pause to kiss a stubbed toe - for a naked 3-yr-old.)
