Ty Makes Life Interesting

I'm not sure what got into him this morning but after he got dressed for school and ate breakfast and packed his lunch he started cleaning out the refrigerator. Do not ask me why because I really don't know. He had the water filter out and filling up and he was asking me, "What should I do with this salad dressing that's dated from three years ago?"

Finally I said, "Ty the bus will be here any minute. You need to stop worrying about that and get your shoes on.

He said, "Ok but what should I do with this cream cheese that's dated last week?"

I said, "Ty I am not kidding with you. Put the cream cheese down."

At just that moment G (our lookout of the day) yelled, "BUS!" G and S3 took off but Ty ran around, panicked like a headless chicken, still with the cream cheese in his hand. So I came and helped him calm down and grab his things but he was running so far behind he had to carry his shoes. I saw Eileen the bus driver laughing when he got on the bus.

You can't say it wasn't an interesting morning. And at least I have a half clean fridge now. And a box of outdated cream cheese sitting on my couch by the front door.

ROTFL. Sounds like something my daughter would do.

ROFL I can honestly say that my kids have never ever helped clean out the refrigerator, let alone initiate it on their own. Now forget to move that cream cheese off your sofa. ;)

ROFL! Brendan will occasionally clean his room on his own (at least partially ;), but neither of them has ever shown any inclination to clean the fridge--too funny! ((Hugs))
