An idea for a story...

Once upon a time there was a little boy who loved to run through the woods that lay behind his house. He would jump and spin and climb, and sometimes he would even hug the trees because he loved them all so much. He would tell them stories about adventures he wanted to have, and villains he wanted to fight. But most of all he loved to lie down at the base of one special tree and dream of magical things that could only exists in books. His name was Jacob.

A Toilet by Any Other Name...

Would still be really dirty.

Have you ever wondered what a toddler really thinks about the bathroom before they're potty trained? Well I don't really know the answer to that, because every toddler is different, but I'm pretty sure my twin toddlers think it's a water park.

Today I found Maggie sitting in the sink while her sister Ellie scooped water out of the toilet. They were having a blast! I suppose if you wanted to name their "rides" you might call Maggie's "The Waterfall", or "River Run". And I suppose Ellie's might be called "The swirling Vertex of Farewell", or "Going Down Stream".

I guess most water parks are a bit germ infested, but I kinda feel like this one might take the cake.
