'PILLOW' TALK

Now that I have your attention (lol), we had a fun Family Home Evening the other night. After a thought provoking lesson from our teen regarding the City of Enoch (I love being taught by my children), Rusty quickly exitted from the couch and room to set up for our activity. 'Back up' to when we moved into our home over 7 years ago....

We had been in our home just a couple of days and the toilet on the main floor backed up. It, in addition to the kid's bathroom toilet, has continued to be a problem...until I cracked the main floor toilet and we replaced it. However, the children's toilet has continued to be a trouble maker. The ongoing problems had initiated Rusty's FHE Activity...

He returns to the room with our kitchen stool (so many puns - lol)and toilet paper.

Rusty proceeds to call Asa to the 'stool' aka porcelain throne aka toilet. Then Rusty poses as a toilet paper holder. (cue the laughter) He continues by teaching Asa to fold a minimal amount of TP into a...'pillow' like wipe.

He also demonstrates, a wad. (laughter is fully ensued) Wads are unacceptable in our home.

Then we all get to watch Ivy take the 'quiz' to see how well she listened.

Yes. It was a memorable FHE!

You forgot to mention that the week before that activity the toilet clogged twice. In the weeks since, we've only had one clog. So I'd say the exercise was successful.

This is TOTALLY something Zane would do!! In fact, we have a temperamental toilet right now...maybe we need to have this FHE lesson too. Is Rusty available on Monday? :)
