I LOVE MY BOYS!
I guess God made me tolerable of things many girls/women aren't. Either it was God, or my 3 older brothers. Ha ha. Here are a list of things that I encounter daily. Tell me all of you with little boys...do you encounter these things also?
1-Weird things frozen in ice in cups in my freezer? Like; bugs, action figurines, worms, coins, pine cones...you name it.
2-Rocks, sticks, and acorns in the washing machine, or if they don't come out of the pockets then, in the dryer? You would think I would learn to check pockets every time. But, it seems most the time I am throwing a load in in a rush. I guess the girl alternative could be worse...melted lip smackers.
3-Hey Mom look! And right in your face when you turn to look is a nice long worm they are so proud of finding (that just happened as I am writing this), or a grasshopper in each hand held by a leg for a "grasshopper fight". A little inhumane if you ask me. The best was when we were at Grandma's house. I was up stairs and I heard a little knock at the side door. Grandma answered the door, then I hear her scream and scream, "it's a bird, it's a bird!" and Ty starts crying. He innocently was showing her the dead bird he just found. It was recently killed because it was limp and not stiff. I am glad he got to Grandma before me.

Aren't boys so much fun. I think they are tons of fun too, but sometimes I just think... Really? don't they know how dirty that is? I think its hilarious to watch my little 1 year old girl, who wants to be just like her brothers, out playing in the dirt with the big boys. She doesn't have a chance of being "girly"
Oh yes, we have lots of worms, bugs, and stuff. Lately, it is frogs. They are cute, but they aren't going to survive long I think.
I'm glad someone else has found weird things in their ice maker. I still don't know how it happened! My kids are not huge on the bugs but, Claire has carried around a dead/petrified bird that I thought was a pinecone once. Yuck! Aren't kids fun!
I just found a frozen water bottle in my freeze with a toy lizard. That one was from Tanner. Later I found a frozen water bottle with money inside. That was Kenzie. She is a definite girl. Loves money.
We only have girls but, during the summer if I get alot of rocks in the washing machine!
My kids have definitely done the weird concoction in the freezer experiment a time or two. And, as for twigs and rocks in the washing machine, I think I get that more from my 4-wheeling husband than from my kids!
