Another laundry disaster!

I pulled out my washing from the dryer yesterday… And noticed a lovely yellow hue on certain items, including 8 kids vests, one white tee-shirt, a pair of Hubby Dearest’s sicks, and four school shirts…

The victims!

Damn that yellow belt! Lil Man passed his karate grading and is now a yellow belt, and, as with all his belts, I washed it to soften it for tying next week.

The culprit?

Then as I continued the unload process, I located the real problem… Not any one else, but my fault!
I love wearing katengas to bed as it gets warmer, Kenyan kaftans and they are usually tie dyed… Not with color fast dye… And one was in the load…

Guilty! The offending article!

Ooooops!!

Wetting the Baby’s Head – Kids Logic Part 20

Last night Hubby Dearest went out to ‘wet the baby’s head’ with some of his friends. One of his mates has become a daddy for the third time, and in time honoured tradition, they had to go and celebrate, as the lads like to do! I explained this to the kids when they asked where daddy was going.

This morning, we drove past the pub and restaurant the ‘gathering’ was in and I mentioned to the kids, sitting in the back, that that was where Daddy had been last night.

Lil Princess pipes up…

LP: But no mummy, he wasn’t there!

Me: Yes he was!

LP: No, you said he was putting water on the baby’s head, that would have been at home!

Well, I guess normally we do bathe kids at home, and not in a pub!

Lil Princess…random as always, sitting, getting changed when a thought pos into her head.. She has to verbalise…

LP: Mrs G (headteacher) said if you are ever lost, to call 999… Use your phone or find one… But I’m a kid, I don’t have a phone! What are you supposed to do then?

Good question…!

Rob! – Kids Logic Part 18

Sat in Burger King this lunchtime, a treat for Lil Princess as she had her grading at Karate today, and got whacked on the cheek kinda hard…

Tears ensued but we managed to mop them up with a BK serviette… Nothing a Kids Meal toy can’t fix!

Lil Man was “hai-ya”ing at the time at him own grading.

Hubby Dearest put the order in and the two of us, the ladies, went to find a table.

There was a 4 seater table available.

LP: Good! You sit there, me here, Daddy there, and Rob can sit opposite me!
Me: Rob? Who’s Rob?
LP: My imaginary friend!
Me: Why is he called Rob?
LP: It’s because he takes things that aren’t his!

And a big smile followed!

I guess that makes sense actually! Pretty clever!
