Flushing Issues

We've been having some issues with flushing the toilet at our house. It's not happening.

The other week, Ben, in his frustration, gave the kids have a time out in the bathroom and made them stand next to the toilet where they could see the unflushed product that someone had left behind. They were suitably grossed out.

Move along to tonight.

We have a toilet bowl cleaner called "Green Works". As you might guess by the name, it's green. I leave it in the toilet for about 10 minutes and then clean the bowl.

Lizzy saw this tonight and very seriously told me "Make sure you never buy Yellow Works or Daddy will make us look at it for a time out"

I can't help but laugh.

Computer Craft

Lizzy wanted to do some craft with me today. However, I think she's been playing on the Wii too much, as she asked me

"Mummy, do you want to make something single player or multiplayer?"

I elected to do a single player craft, and we made some place cards together. I decorated mine and she decorated hers. I wonder if I had selected to do a multiplayer craft if I would have been required to decorate the same place card she was working on.

First Day of School

The kids went back to school today. Isaac is starting year 2 and Lizzy is starting Kindergarten. Lizzy has been telling us that she's so excited for the past couple of days, and sure enough, she happily went off to school today.

Here are a few pictures of her first day.
