This morning when Xander was going into his bedroom to get dressed after his shower I heard him mutter, "Showers in the morning are just a waste of time...".
He could have been extra resentful this morning of my insistence that he practice normal hygiene because I also subjected him to having his toenails and fingernails trimmed. I then performed an archeological dig into his cuticles so that it would not look like he was wearing black nail polish (and this, after just scrubbing them in the shower!). I asked him what he did to get them so dirty and he replied, "I go to school!" Hmmm, I wasn't aware that they had started a garden at school.... I think it actually comes from the fact that whenever they use Elmer's glue at school he tends to rub it all over his hands like lotion and then dig in the mud at recess, effectively glueing the dirt into his nails...ahh, boys.
