Poo Awareness - Another Mommy Super Power

Now that we have successfully cared for a child into toddlerhood and are currently caring for a newborn, I assumed I had reached an incredible awareness and knowledge of poo. Silly me, there is at least one more level (the last I hope) in Poo Awareness. Much like a skill that must be leveled while your game character journeys through game quests, I too, must level my Poo Awareness skill through experience in the quests life gives us (Journey to Walmart, Trip to Beach, MusikGarten Expedition, etc). And, much like the fun gaming world we learn by failing miserably many... many times. In fact, I hear my 2 month old pooping now...

+1 Poo Awareness you sensed poo
-1 Poo Awareness you change her immediately You suffer 10 carpet damage
-1 Poo Awareness you changed her too late. You suffer 5 baby crying points. Pay 5 sanity points to heal [diaper rash]
+15 Poo Awareness you changed her at the right time! You loot [happy baby]

Alas, my epic battle continues, even when I feel like logging off for the evening to get some much needed rest. Would I let someone else potty train Annaka? At this point, likely. However, she is my little grown up baby and I love her dearly! Caleb and I will have beautiful stories to tell her first boyfriend... when she's... like, 30ish.

You bought [Carpet Steam Cleaner]. +10 carpet defense.

Caleb and I have invested in a lovely carpet steam cleaner that will most likely see its fair share of use if it doesn't completely explode on us during this time.

Sorry for the icky topic... however, those of you who are mommies and daddies, I'm sure, will find some humor in this.
