Spotless

Last night, as per our usual routine, Cub was having a shower before bedtime. As of late he has adopted the "I'll do it myself" motto for everything, which of course is both amusing and liberating at the same time. This new found 'tude of course means that he no longer requires the assistance of the parental handlers when showering.  We have had a few ups and downs in this department;

 "KEEP THE WATER IN THE TUB!"

" DO NOT USE THE SHOWER HEAD TO GET YOUR KITTEN WET!"

" TINY LEGO PARTS ARE NOT TUB TOYS!"

"DO NOT SUCK ON THE FACE CLOTH!"

Welcome to our work in progress. 

Last night all was going well, he was soaped up, hair washed and having a grand ole time giggling away.

He started to sing, "Clean, clean, spotless clean" when I poked my head in to see how he was doing.

There he was, bent over 'scrubbing' the tub.

"Whatcha doing Cub?"

"I'm making the Tub spotless."

"You're cleaning the tub?"

" Yup."

I poke my head in the shower... He's standing there with my little ( and most favorite) facial brush in hand now scrubbing his belly button.

" Were you using THAT brush to clean the tub?"

*insert bambi eyes and the look of a pleased as punch 6 year old*

" Yes Mom. I wanted the Tub to be clean."

"That is MY brush and it should NOT be used for cleaning the tub!"

"Oh sorry Mom, but look  it made my penis spotless!"
