Blue Man Troupe's newest member


So I come down stars the other day to find my almost 3 year old coverd from head to toe with a blue marker. It's on his forhead, hands, feet, arms...even the back of his neck (don't ask me how he got it there). He even has streaks of blue in his blond hair. After minutes of questions all i got out of him was..."I color"...um yea, but I think you missed the paper. Well I *think* the real reason for the blue marker is he wants to join the Blue Man Troupe.

What is Sex?

Oh yes, the dredded topic of what is sex came up this past week. I was mortified that my 8 year old even knew the word. So I very cautiously asked him, where did you hear that word? He replied it's here on this piece of paper. He then brought it to me and it tured out to be the registration form for summer camp. Phew!!! So instead of explaining to him about the birds and the bees, I was able to give a little summary on genders.

The Substitute Dad

My 8 year old son told me today that while my husband is gone at work during the week he is going to be the substitute Dad. I secretly think his motive is to secure his control as the ultimate decision maker. Could you imagine the world dominated by 8 year olds. There would be manditory Nintendo DS time every day, and chocolate chip cookies for every meal. There is a reason that God made it impossible for 8 year olds to procreate. I am reminded of that every day!

Toilet Rations

Ok so there has been this issue with toilet paper in my house. I swear everytime I would use our downstairs toilet I would have to put a new roll out. Well I come to find out that my thrifty 6 year old daughter decided to "ration" out the toilet paper. So everytime someone would use the toilet she would sneak in and lay out 2 sheets of 4 squares each. Her toilet rations. I guess this is her part in saving the rainforest. What does she have in store for us next...air drying?
