Pee(r) Pressure

Earlier this week when I picked Elliott up from school and asked how his day was, he said it was great, but he did pee in his pants two times.  "What?!  You've never peed in your pants at school!  Do you mean you just peed a little bit?"  "Yes, I peed a little bit, then stopped it, then went to the bathroom.  It happened at lunch and PE."  "Why did this happen, Elliott?"  "Because Nathan told me to." 

Apparently Nathan kept asking and telling Elliott to pee in his pants and was annoying Elliott so much by repeatedly asking, that Elliott did pee in his pants a bit, to appease him....  Don't ask me!  This is 6 year old boy 'logic'! 

When we got home, Brian had a talk with Elliott about peer pressure. 

A little while later, I was going through Elliott's backpack and found a little handmade black construction paper book.  I could tell from the handwriting and spelling that he hadn't made it.  "Elliott?!  Did Nathan give this to you?!"  "Yes."

Ples p in you'er pans

 Ples p in you'er pants
Tell me if you have
 to go p.p.
 
I'll spare you any more pictures, but the next 10 pages in Nathan's treatise state:
Ples go pp.
in you'er
pants
ples go pp
in you'er
pants
ples.

I'm not sure what Nathan was supposed to be doing while he was "annoying" my son with requests for him to pee his "pans," but they did have a sub that day, so I'm sure that explains the monkey business. 
 
I know boys don't really ever outgrow potty humor, I'm just glad my boy is still young enough to tell me about his day: the good, the bad, and the ridiculous!
