Easily Distracted
"Time to get dressed, HeroBoy."
"Yes ma'am," he answers, wandering off.
A few minutes later, he yells from the back room, "I can't find any underwear!"
"Look harder!" I yell back, reading directly from the Mom Script. I go back to cleaning the kitchen, waiting for the next phase. I fully expect to have to go find the underwear, which is undoubtedly, right in front of his eyeballs the whole time. But I have to make him look at least one nanosecond by himself. However, the second call doesn't come, and I continue washing sippy cups, assuming his behind is well covered.
Half an hour later, HeroBoy saunters in, naked as the day he was born and TOTALLY oblivious. He holds out a toy.
"Can you put the head back on my Ninja Turtle, Mom?"
-sigh- Boys.
