The Joys of Having BoysThe following came from an anonymous Mother in Austin, Texas...Things I've learned from my boys (honest and not kidding):
1.) A king size waterbed holds enough water to fill a 2000 sq. ft. house 4inches deep.
2.) If you spray hair spray on dust bunnies and run over them with rollerblades, they can ignite.
3.) A 3-year old boy's voice is louder than 200 adults in a crowdedrestaurant.
4.) If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan, the motor is not strongenough to rotate a 42 pound Boy wearing batman underwear and a Supermancape. It is strong enough, however, if tied to a paint can, to spreadpaint on all four walls of a 20x20 ft. room.
5.) You should not throw baseballs up when the ceiling fan is on. Whenusing a ceiling fan as a bat, you have to throw the ball up a few timesbefore you get a hit. A ceiling fan can hit a baseball a long way.
6.) The glass in windows (even double-pane) doesn't stop a baseball hitby a ceiling fan.
7.) When you hear the toilet flush and the words "uh oh", it's already toolate.
8.) Brake fluid mixed with Clorox makes smoke.......lots of it
9.) A six-year old boy can start a fire with a flint rock even though a36-year old man says they can only do it in the movies.
10.) Certain Lego's will pass through the digestive tract of a 4-year oldboy.
11.) Play dough and microwave should not be used in the same sentence.
12.) Super glue is forever.
13.) No matter how much Jell-O you put in a swimming pool you still can'twalk on water.
14.) Pool filters do not like Jell-O.
15.) VCR's do not eject "PB & J" sandwiches even though TV commercialsshow they do.
16.) Garbage bags do not make good parachutes.
17.) Marbles in gas tanks make lots of noise when driving.
18.) You probably DO NOT want to know what that odor is.
19.) Always look in the oven before you turn it on; plastic toys do notlike ovens.
20.) The fire department does not always have a 5-minute response time.
21.) The spin cycle on the washing machine does not make earthworms dizzy.
22.) The spin cycle on the washing machine will, however, make cats dizzy.
23.) Cats throw up twice their body weight when dizzy.
24.) 80% of men who read this will try mixing the Clorox and brake fluid.
25.) 80% of women will pass this on to almost all of their friends, withor without kids.
a) For those with no children - this is totally hysterical.
b) For those who already have children past this age, this is hilarious.
c) For those who have children this age, this is not funny.
d) For those who have children nearing this age, this is a warning.
e) For those who have not yet had children, this is birth control
***My own that should be added to this is.........tweezers in electrical outlets make fireworks in the house (Thomas taught me that when he was about 3! I am saving those melted tweezerman tweezers for him to show him when he is older)

Me too Shelley, thank goodness I had girls, but have seen what my grandsons can and will do.
