Boys are gross.

A few days back Jimmy and Joey both bundled up the stairs and invited me very politely to their tea party...
I followed them downstairs to find this.

The toy box with a tablecloth and set with three places.

"This is your seat Mama!"


They had snacks and everything prepared. I was duely charmed at the imaginative job done by the two boys and was then presented with my tea.



And then I looked over to see what they were using for a teapot...


The screaming banshee had nothing on me in that moment.

So, the next day while we were collecting school supplies, I picked up a proper tea set for them.
This set included a little sugar bowl and spoons, we quickly discovered that the spoons were just the right amount of lemonade mix to make lemonade in those tiny cups, so I keep the sugar bowl full of mix for them to have as they like...

They have tea instead of snack time in the afternoon... I swear I didn't teach them this!





On another boys are gross note, Joey learned a hard life lesson. Even though it is brand new and has Thomas on it(!), Mama will take and throw away your toothbrush if you use it on the cat's butt. And then she will be compelled to sniff all the other brushes in the house. Just in case this wasn't the first occurrence...
The cat will never be the same...it was a spinbrush.
