It's not everyday (or ever) that you hear a charming and wholesome diarrhea story, but one man's tale about having diarrhea in front of his 4-year-old is sure to put a smile on your face.

Chris Edwards shared his unfortunate but surprisingly adorable experience on his No Idea What I'm Doing: A Daddy Blog's Facebook page on Wednesday.

Edwards explained in his post that he and his family were driving to a funeral when they stopped at a gas station with his daughter. He was suddenly struck with the need to go to the bathroom while in the station, so he rushed to the lavatory with his daughter Aspen while his wife and two older kids stayed in the car.

According to Edwards' post, he made it to the bathroom just in time and had no choice but to bring his daughter into the stall with him. She began giving him strong words of encouragement:"Good job, Daddy! Good job! You make two poops! Now three poops! I’m four!"

As Edwards continued to do his, uh, business, his daughter's encouragement never seemed to waver.

"I’m not sure what happened exactly, if I’d eaten something wrong, or if it was the stress of traveling with kids, but what I do know is that my 4yo daughter is the Richard Simmons of pooping," Edwards wrote. "I’ve never felt so supported in anything in my whole life. She commented on the size, smell, and sound. 'Wow!' She said. She commented on my work ethic. 'You’re trying so hard!'"

As for why his daughter would be so encouraging, Edwards gave a pretty understandable and adorable explanation.

"I suppose she’s gotten used to the positive reinforcement Mel and I give her each time she goes," he wrote. "And when I’m cheering her on in our family restroom, it seems normal, even appropriate. But when the roles are reversed, it’s just, well, awkward. Particularly in a public restroom where the man in the stall next to me was obviously holding back tears of laughter."

Edwards eventually finished up in the bathroom and was able to continue the trip with his family with the aid of some over-the-counter anti-diarrheal medicine.

It sounds like Aspen is one hell of an amazing motivational speaker. We just hope that next time she's giving empowering speeches it's outside of a gas station bathroom.
