One day I found my deep hair conditioner had been taken from under my bathroom sink and was on a shelf. Odd, I thought. But my friend, Kelly, had warned me that, as the kids get older, things will start disappearing from my bathroom. I figured one of them needed a deep conditioning and I just put it away. The next day, it was out again! Arrggg! I put it away. Next day, it made it's way downstairs to the kitchen! I made a sarcastic remark at Colby as I looked at Ariana out of the corner of my eye, "Colb, you using this?"
"Yeah."
"Huh?" (My husband shaves his head bald)
"Yeah, I've been putting it on my tattoo." (He has been getting a substantial tattoo over the last few weeks and had been using a tube of Aveeno that I bought him to moisturize it.)
"Really, you are using hair conditioner on your tattoo???"
"Ohhh, I just grabbed a tube and started putting it on."
"Really?" So you just grab my nipple cream and brush your teeth with it too???
His arm broke out really bad and, needless to say, he wouldn't admit to the tattoo artist today what he had done. Men.
I didn't mention it yet, but Ariana & I volunteered at a nursing home for Easter. It is the same one we volunteer at for Thanksgiving. If you haven't volunteered with your child yet, I really recommend it. It makes me feel so good to see her bringing smiles to all those faces. And, more importantly, she feels so good about what she is doing that she always asks to go back and do more. I won't preach but, really, consider it. Hopefully, it will carry on further into her life than I can anticipate.
For those of you keeping track, both Colb and I have worked out all 3 days since we started the Family Fitness Challenge. Well, he wanted to count building the kids tree house deck as his workout... so, whatever. I have to give him a handicap, he is a guy, and all.
