May or may not have been heard at our house:
"Why did I only get one pair of underpants from you in the laundry this week?”
“I don’t know. Maybe ‘cause I only took one shower.”
“Wait. You only took one shower?”
Nod.
{How did I not notice that?}
“Hmm. That’s not enough.”
“oKAY.”
“And also? Wait a minute….FAMILY MEETING! EVERY ONE COME HERE A MINUTE!”
Kids assemble from all corners of the house.
“Is everyone aware that the standard is clean underpants Every. Single. Day??
Guffaws & nods.
“Okay. Because I’m definitely not seeing 21 pairs of kid underpants every week in the laundry, if you know what I mean…”
Horrified silence.
“Can we go now?”
“Yes.”
I’m pretty sure I had mentioned all this to them before. More than a few times.
It wasn’t the Romney’s sickness training video* but it was needed all the same.
*my favorite line from the video: "There's a hierarchy of things we care about. First? Carpet...Second? Other people." {Hey Jessica, you've had 1,112 views on YouTube for that video! Your system is spreading across the globe...}
