Do You Know Where You're Going To?

Do you think that 15 years from now he'll be calling me between classes in college to announce: "Momma! I have to go to the bathroom!"
He doesn't need me for this event. He just needs to let me know the event is about to take place. Sometimes I'll be upstairs and he'll start yelling from the living room: "Momma!"
And I have to come halfway down the stairs to find out that's what he needs to tell me.
Just go already!
Once Ken tried some reverse psychology on him, yelling in from the dining room to tell C that he had to go to the bathroom.
There was a long pause from the living room and then: "Daddy. Why are you telling me that?"
