Is This Funny...

...I thought it was, but maybe it was just a break in my sanity. Of course it is one of my shameless crazy kid stories...what else could it be???

While Brian was gone, I wasn't quite sure how to go about getting Ayden's hair cut...Anjolie gave me a clue, when she walked in to the bathroom and saw me cutting Aydens hair, she said "Mommy, do you know what you are doing?".."Nope!" I replied... in my best homeschool mom grammer.."I sure don't". I did think better of my original idea and decided to just stop before I had to buzz off all his hair and really hear it from Anjolie and everyone else for that matter. I got the vac. to clean up the hair I had already cut and saw no harm in putting the hose down for a second while I ran to check dinner on the stove. Multi-tasking doesn't always take into account the quick mind of a 2 year old boy. I was NOT gone more than about 10 seconds, as the bathroom is just adjacent to the kitchen. Time was of no importance I am sure, for, when I returned, I found little Ayden standing with my poor vac hose in hand and grinning as he watched the contents of the toilet disappear into my beatiful canister vac....!!!!! The past 7 years I had with that trusty hunk of galvanized steal suddenly flashed through my mind...the money we spent on that thing, the messes it had so faithfully cleaned, so dutiful, so reliable and most importantly ...would this little mishap be, by any chance, covered by the warranty???? I honestly, in that moment, didn't know whether to scream or laugh, so I did both. I am a wiser woman after seeing that..I had NO idea the mischief little boys could get into, nor did I know that a vac could be so tough!! When I pulled out the SOPPING wet mes of a bag, there was about 2.5 to 3 inches of water in the bottom...it had not gotten into the motor. I really truly think the Lord had to be laughing about that one...seriously. So, come on, isn't that funny? Or, am I losing my mind hahahaha... or both. :)
