Trees

Since spring has finally come, my boys are like birds let out of a cage. They want to be outside constantly, which I love. They are free little spirits. A new great thing has happened. The two five year old girls (that aren't in school yet) in the cul-de-sac come and get Cael every day to play. They will play for hours a day. They get along so well. Today I couldn't find him, so I go to the neighbors and he was inside, a big no-no. I told him he was done playing for the morning, and he could play again this afternoon. A little later I hear the front door open so I go running to remind him he cannot play outside. And to my surprise, what do I see??? I see a bare butt and an archway of pee!!! He had went outside, in his socks, to pee on the tree in our yard! WHAT.THE.HECK!!! Are you kidding me! I run down to him, and of course this was the longest pee known to mankind. What could I do. I sat there and waited for him to finish peeing (seriously like 20 seconds after I got to him!) On the way inside, he could tell I was mad, and he says, "I couldn't make it to the bathroom. I was going to pee my pants!" Liar!!! It was more work to go outside than to the bathroom! Kids and their lies! Argggg, so mad at him! He will be hanging out on his bed, right next to the bathroom, to make sure that he can make it in time, for the rest of the day!!! Boys!
