Kids…Gotta Sell Them errrr, I mean Love Them:)
I can’t be in 2 places at one time…not possible. I was cooking dinner last night while step-daughter did her chore of cleaning upstairs bathroom. Because her little brother (my son) gets on her last nerve, she decided to close the bathroom door to keep him out of her way. HOWEVER, she left various cleaning supplies outside of the bathroom in the hallway. Y’all know where I’m going with this right?
My boy…so, he comes to me in the kitchen to say he needs to use the bathroom (I got yous thee bafroom). Ok, well your sister is cleaning yours so go to the one in my room. “OK mommy”, he says.
Maybe 10 minutes later I hear my step-daughter yell down to me, “Safaaaaaaa”. **SIGH** What could she possibly want I wonder.He has Ajax all over his body and all over his room. Call CFS on me but because I knew this was gonna be a CHORE, I ignored her for an additional 10 minutes so I could finish cooking dinner.
I go upstairs. She didn’t exaggerate. The smell was so strong. He had Ajax on his bed, all over the floor, his arm chair, the Lego table (in the nooks/crannies), his chalk board/easel thingy, his Little Tykes slide hut…and all over his head and all over his clothes and in between his toes!. Some of the Ajax that was on the floor and his chair was wet. Boy was I glad dinner was finished.
It took forever but I got him and his room clean. I asked him why he did this. I didn’t spank him since this was his first offense and I guess he should have been supervised. I explained why that wasn’t a good idea. He thought the Ajaz could be used on his carpet as freshner…why was my baby about to vaccuum his room? I was all sweaty and Ajaxy when I finished. You can still see remnants of the stuff!
But, really….could you stay mad at a face like this?
How could you stay mad at a face like that. He was going to vacumm it up! Too cute! He is such a cutie

Oh my goodness! He is cute! Be strong, I think it’s part of a larger conspiracy of little people in this age group to get away with murder.

Thanks for the comments on my site. I have asked to take him to dinner and he always seems too busy but then everytime I ask him what he is doing it’s “sitting on the floor watchin TV”? Go figure. I am just gonna have the “talk” with him.
That little boy of yours is a doll. NO WAY could I stay mad at that little cutie! Classic story to put in the books.

What a lil cutie you have!!! It’s hard to stay mad at them when they have good intentions (ie cleaning!) lol
We once had an incident like yours, but with baby powder instead! Such a pain to clean up!
