Party-Pooper without the Party

Jayden is SO excited about Halloween and has been non-stop chatter about his costume, jack-o-lanterns and trick-or-treating. In a recent conversation with his mommy, he was reviewing the details of his Wednesday night candy quest.

"Is Daddy taking me trick-or-treating?" he asked Juli.

"Yes, Daddy is taking you trick or treating."

"Is he dressing up? What is he going to be?"

"Nothing," Juli replied to her three-year-old. "Daddy is a party-pooper," she explained.

A sudden concerned expression crosses the face of the little man who is currently trying to get toilet trained. "Daddy is going as POOP??!" he exclaims incredulously.

The mommy can offer no reply except laughter. Jayden realized that he has probably misunderstood and his Daddy is NOT dressing up as poop for Halloween. To clarify, he says

"Oh Mommy. You're just teasing me with poop."
