the poo was the second line of defense.....i didn't realise i was so close to their baby until they dive bombed me over and over.....i wish the world could have seen their fortitude!.......after the bombing raid i fetched my friend who just went digital, and unwittingly invited him to a poofest......mostly liquid it was....and defintly water soluable....

thanks for looking nicole...

Doesn't that go to show there's a little crap to endure for everything we love! The last is my favorite!
