Always room for one more...
The 4-year old twins just finished potty training before I arrived for my visit. So, for them, the bathroom tends to be another place for social interaction. They love to come in to talk during a shower and often follow me in when I have to take a quick potty break. At first I tried to explain that I was using the bathroom---but this didn't make sense to them. They came in anyway, and since there isn't a lock on the door...
Most the time, one of them will play in the sink and the other will stand right next to me while continuing the conversation we're having. I try to pull my shirt down and be as discreet as possible---but they are 4 and have no interest in anything other than chatting.
I was surprised one day, however, when I felt a small hand reach from behind as I made a quick potty break. I screamed, completely stunned! "What are you doing?" I asked Tim who stood innocently behind me, with a smile on his face and a wad of toliet paper in his hand. "I'm wiping," he replied, still smiling.
Instantly, Ben finished at the sink and stood in front of me. "You pooping? I can help wipe too," he offered, grabbing at the toliet paper. "No---I'm good," I assured them both, trying to decide whether to be mortified, humiliated, or if I should just start laughing. "You just tinkeling," Ben asked, eyeing me to make sure his services weren't needed. "Yes, I'm just tinkeling and i'm done." I promised---the whole time cursing the diet pop for making me have to pee so much...

LOL!!!!!!!! THANKS! I HAVEN'T LAUGHED SO HARD IN A LONG TIME.
Sorry Mindy, my keyboard was acting up and my previous comment didn't make sense.
Anyway, I was just saying I'm glad to find that my kids aren't the only ones that are "helpful". That first time of feeling the hand at your fanny is always surprising;)
Oh my word--that is hilarious!
