good morning!!!

The other morning, I had the privilege of waking up to Nathan saying, "Natey have water, mommy!" over and over. I just had to laugh. Usually they come into our room and say good morning and we all get up...but not that morning. It just struck me funny.

Oh, the toilet.

My kids have never been ones to play in the toilet...until one day. Monday afternoon when I came home from work, I went to the bathroom. After flushing, I knew that the toilet acted a little funny but didn't really give it a second thought. Later that night I asked my husband if the kiddos were playing in the toilet...he said yes but he didn't see them throw any toys in there. OK, so maybe they just used a little too much paper. So a couple of days go by and the toilet is still acting funny. I finally asked Lillian if she put anything in the toilet when she was home with daddy the other day. She said, "paper." I asked her if she put anything else in there. She said no. Then she said Natey put pink block. She wanted me to get it out. I told her that it was stuck. Thankfully, two gentlemen from church came over and used the snake to retrieve the block. I wish I would have been a fly on the wall when it happened because the kids were just watching them intently. When they finally got the pink block out, they jumped and screamed, "yeah, they got it!" over and over and over. Needless to say, they have not put anything else down the toilet that I know of...and it is still working fine.
