Well, I do now..
While I was staying at my Mother in law's home I took a ton of photographs. I love this part of my vacation and I am sure my nieces and nephews have come to expect getting their photographs taken. One morning my sister in law, Penny, had to run to her home because the basement had flooded. I got her permission to bathe her two youngest boys, to get them ready for picture day.
My other sister in law, Mari, was going to help me get them into the tub. I ran upstairs to start the water, but their big sister was in their shower. I ran to "our" bathroom and started getting things ready. I ran back down the stairs and Mari said, "The boys want to take a bath downstairs." Great, that is fine. I ran around a bit more....making sure I had the right pants, shirt, sweater vest, hat, and shoes for each boy. Then I ran down the stairs.
I could hear the water running. I then I heard my little nephew scream, "I can't do it, you do it, I CAN'T DO IT!" My mother's instinct pictured the worst. Those two little boys had crawled into the tub, and were being scalded by hot water and couldn't turn it off. With Simone on my hip I ran into the bathroom and threw open the shower curtain to rescue my small nephews. Only, it was a man.
The curtain was quickly replaced. "I am sorry, I thought you were the kids." He yelled something at me. I do not remember what it was. " Hey?"-- "What are you doing?"--"What the---?" I don't remember.
I left the room with a bright red face. I truly did not see anything, but how embarrassing --AND who was it? After quizzing a few people upstairs about who was home, we all decided it was a friend of the family. Oh, even more embarrassing.
The children were in the room next to the bathroom trying to climb the ladder on the bunk bed.
Every time someone asks, "What is your most embarrassing moment?", I never have an answer. Well, I do now.

HA!! Oh I am LAUGHING!! And I am sorry because I can only imagine how mortifying that was, but my goodness. Funny!! Yes, you have the best embarrassing story now!!:)
LOL Jer.
That's all I got to say.
I used to think, every time something embarrassing happened, oh now I have an embarrassing story to tell, but I never would.
Because it's embarrassing, I don't want to tell people about the stupid thing that I did. If that's the case, you can always start with "Once, my friend told me, that he . ." and take the guilt away from you. It kind of makes it a lie, but c'mon like all of those embarrassing stories aren't lies.
every time i hear this, i cringe for you. this really is a classic embarrassing moment. :)
Love this story... must say, better when told by you personally, but great story. We need to have a girls time here soon... I am missing my gals.
This is hilarious! You should win a prize! The funniest part about it is that no one knew who was taking the shower! Some random guy who lives down the street? I can't stop laughing!

Jeri I love it! So funny-sorry for your embarassment, but SO funny!
Oh my! I would have wanted to crawl into a corner and die. I am so sorry, but I agree, that is one of the funniest things I have ever heard. LOL again and again, and again!!! So, I have to ask, did you have to look this guy in the face later that day? Did you ever see him again?
Kaylynn, Yes. I did see him. My shoulders scrunched up and I said, "I'm so sorry". I could never look him in the face again. So embarrassing!
