Why did I catch Bomboy using his Hulk toothbrush to clean his toilet bowl? And he was doing it in the presence of his big sister and brother who just giggled as they watched. He was using toothpaste which foams up delightfully and must have encouraged his efforts even more. The boy was scrubbing fiercely. When I asked him why he was using his personal toothbrush to clean the toilet, he just said "I'm working, mommmyyeee. Uhn!" (Yes, he added an "Uhn" just to emphasize that my interruption was unbecoming).
lol!
I do not know what got into him. After all, he was supposed to be preparing to go to bed. Our bedtime rotine is a simple process. We have it down to a science now. Brush teeth-use the potty-wash-lotion-get dressed-read a book-pray-tickles-piggy back rides to bed. Where "scrub the toilet with your toothbrush" comes in, is simply not apparent. But, in the mind of a 3 year old boy, that clearly made sense. *sigh*

I swear, I couldn't even get upset, frankly. I just told him that when I need him to clean the toilet, I will ask him to do so and that he must never again put his toothbrush in the toilet bowl. He agreed. But, for how long? Now that is the question.
Anyway, how una dey? Thanks so much for the suggestions on how to give the kids some culture. I have a little project coming up that should work to that end. Will let you know when I have a chance to breathe. Life seems so complicated and busy right now. But, everyone is fine, thank God and TE was "Student of the Week" in her 1st grade class recently.
I do have a question I want to ask you guys on Friday sha. I've been wondering about something and realized I should just bring it to the Easier Crew. Hmm, wonder if folks will show up to give me suggestions?
Okay, oh. Until Friday, my good people.
BTW, I'm talking politics on Vera's radio show this Saturday, so please listen in.
Thanks!
