Totally Awesome Antics, huh? Might have to rethink that!

You know when you think you have everything under order and everything is just the way you like it and so forth? The kids clean their rooms, play, put their toys away, listen to the parents.............eat lunch, and then go play some more?

Then you hear total silence in the house and that OH MY GOD, IT'S QUIET IN THE HOUSE, FIND OUT WHY voice (more like alarm) goes off within every ounce of your body?! Well, that happened yesterday about 5pm. Total dead, DEAFENING silence. Then, without a shadow of doubt, you hear daddy's voice echo/bellow out all over the house, WHAT IS THIS? What are you doing?

Um, for a dad who rarely yells, much less raises his voice, to hear something like that is like, well, UH OH..........better go find out! OH YEAH, was it worth the charge? OH YEAH!!!!!!!!!! DEFINITELY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Picture this............two kids, crying now, mind you.........(because they are totally BUSTED BEYOND BELIEF!) Two kids, dressed in the day attire........shorts/shirts, full of petroleum jelly........and lotion.........and GOO! (all non-toxic of course!) This goo project is now running to the floor. (Making the carpet smell of sweet lavendar) Matthew's face is WHITE from lotion. Hair is plastered (and I mean plastered) to his head like the GREASERS from the 1950's! Rebecca's front part of her hair is just as bad.........not so full of lotion, but so incredibly knowing she's about to be in totally hot water!

I tell ya, if you don't cry, you laugh, if you don't laugh, you cry......and if you do neither............as I did, YOU JUST GO AND START THE BATHTUB! Matthew was definitely the first one in the tub. Crying the whole way. Saying sorry mommy. Becca, in the background just wailing away............Daddy who just had to walk away for fear of laughing, I think.

Totally awesome antics? I might have to rethink that one! SERIOUSLY! Lord, what's next?!
