Oh to be in the mind of a six-year-old boy . . .

Kid #3 - "Mommy! There's a spider in the bathroom! A big one!"

Me: "Where is it?"

Kid #3 - "Next to the toliet!"

Me: "Okay, I'll be there in a minute!"

30 seconds later . . . .

Kid #3 - "It's okay mommy!"

Me - "What's okay?" I ask as I walk into the bathroom to the sound of a flushing toliet.

Me - "Why is it wet next to the toliet?" I bend over to smell a strong urine odor . . . and a small dead spider.

Kid #3 - "The spider's dead Mommy." He tells me as I'm trying very hard to to laugh.

Me - "That's fine sweetie, but next time let me take care of it . . . you don't need to drown it. Okay?"

Kid #3 - "Okay Mommy."

It's nice to know he has no problem killing spiders . . .
