The Smelling of the Hair

Little Squid suffers from a common "boy" malady. He often forgets to use soap and shampoo when he bathes. Ick! This has resulted in a ritual known as the "smelling of the hair" wherein I ask "did you use soap?" and he replies by coming over and bending down so I can smell his hair.

Yes, yes we are a strange family. Did you really have to ask?

Back to work tomorrow. We are all happy that it is a short week.

I can see how that would happen in a nice hot shower first thing in the morning.

Does that make me strange, too? ;^)

Seems like a good plan to me! And works without nagging.

Well, at least he HAS hair for the sniff test... (Some of us are follicly challenged.)

I have this same ritual w/ J!
She's prone to using so little shampoo that it's a pointless exercise...

Hate to tell you, but this ritual can continue into teenhood and beyond...
