Jacob so kindly got all the toothbrushes ready for the kiddos a few nights ago. He placed them on the table and then went about the bedtime-getting-ready-business. I entered the room ready to help scrub away little cavity-bugs, but the toothbrushes were nowhere to be found. Wha?
I questioned the older ones, but they had no idea. I turned around and found Andrew almost ready to burst. Of course he was waiting, so I asked, “Where are toothbrushes Andrew?”
The words erupted forth…”In the tree!” Hee heeeee heee “The tree with no star” hee heeeeeeee heeee
And there they were – right in the tree. The tree that I had just pulled all the ornaments off of. The Christmas tree that was now bare except for it’s lights…. and four toothbrushes. What a fine decoration!
We had a fun little treasure hunt finding all the toothbrushes. And I shall not be surprised when the toothbrushes find a new vacation spot.
It reminds me of a funny joke my little brother John once told me (warning, he was quite young).
John: Why did the horse climb the tree?
Me: Hmmm, no idea
John: To brush his teeth!!!
Me: Huh?
John: Get it?? Leaves are green and toothpaste is green.
Me: Ah, yeah. Now I get it.
And obviously, so does Andrew. 🙂
Heehee- I love Andrew and his shenanigans- he is so cute. I never knew that story about John and the toothpaste. This is why I love blogs!!! 😀
