Does this look like the face of someone who would periodically cause mischief and mayhem???Don't answer that. Tell me why children come up with the things they do? Yesterday my sweet four year old K.J. gave me one of those - tell me why moments. In the middle of the afternoon I ask him to make a potty stop (he gets busy and forgets until he has an accident:( ). After a brief argument he trotted off to the bathroom. I hear the light go on and then I hear this not so normal noise. Knowing my K. J. as I do I immediately hurried to the bathroom after him. I found him peeing in the bathtub instead of the toilet (thank heavens it was the bathtub and not the floor-much easier to cleanup). I ask him (dumb question) if he had been peeing in the bathtub (we both knew he had) - He just looks up at me with this exspression that says - Who Me?I didn't know whether to be mad or cry or laugh. Tell me why kids do these things? What are they thinking? And where do four year old brains come up with these things? Crazy. My mom says he was probably seeing what would happen if he did - she's probably right - but I hate dealing with the mess. But I guess that is what you get when you adore these little people in your lives.

I have three younger brothers, and have three boys of my own, and my answer is "because they can!" Just you wait... There will be MANY more surprises as they get older! =) =)
How fun, you started a blog. Love the pictures and seeing how the kids are growing.
This post made me laugh, especially since all of us who deal with boys on a regular basis, have gone through that. A.'s comment is so true: they do it because they can. That really made me laugh. There is no real reason, it just seemed like the thing to do at the time. Yeah, just you wait...
