Toilets and Kids

My six year old son loves to make every chore a game, including stripping off clothes for bath. He goes through a routine where he spins each piece of clothing over his head like a lasso, and shoots for the clothes hamper or the corner of his bedroom. His underwear and socks get the soccer treatment--he balances them on his foot, then punts.

Tonight he scored in an interesting and unexpected way. He was undressing for bath time, and attempted a shot with his underwear into the clothes hamper in the bathroom. I heard my wife scream, and I ran upstairs to find the toilet gurgling and both kids with a guilty look on their faces. My wife explained that Ethan missed the hamper, and landed his underwear in the toilet just as my daughter flushed. Goodbye underwear! Momma was not amused.
