April Fools Classic

I don't want to forget this so I'm posting it now.
Preface: I have been trying to teach Tianna about all of the holidays we celebrate, even the silly ones.  April Fools was no different...I told her on April 1st you play tricks on people and we needed to think of a good trick to play on daddy.

On her way to preschool Friday morning she said, "Oh Mom! Today is the day we get to play a trick on Dad, huh!" I said, "yes, have you thought of anything to do?" and she got this bright smile on her face and said, "Yes! I have a good idea. I'll do a somersault on him! Or a pike!"  It took me a minute, but then I realized when I said play a TRICK on dad she was thinking of her gymnastic tricks! haha. I love how children make two-and-two in their smart little minds.

Another funny Tianna story that I don't want to forget, happened a few months ago. I got the old scrubber toothbrush out to scrub the hard water and gunk build up from around the bathroom sink. She got in the drawer where I keep my spare (travel) toothbrush and pulled it out and said she wanted to help. I said, "No no that's not one for cleaning. I still use that one.."
She was quiet for a minute and then said, "Mom, I have something to tell you.  (she had a rather horrified expression on her face too)  Every night when I come up to brush my teeth I get that toothbrush and scrub the counter with it." "Wait, what? You scrub the counter with it?" and she said, "Yes, I go like this:" and she then demonstrated how she scrubs the counter, and the walls, and the mirror, and the towel rack... with my toothbrush.    All I can say is THANK GOODNESS I forgot to take it with me the last time I went out of town.
She was glad I wasn't mad. Honestly, since I hadn't used it since she had been doing that, I found it quite funny.  However, I did tell her I really need her to ask before doing stuff like that. She's such a silly and funny and wonderful little girl. I sure love her!.
