need a rinse?

Julia came out of the bathroom this morning with a rather sad look on her face. She tells me she is sorry, but she has clogged the toilet. No problem I tell her, but feel the need to ask...
"did you flush a lot of toilet paper down the toilet?"
"yes mom, 32 pieces"

32 pieces? like she was counting while clogging the toilet....

Ok, so off to investigate. Indeed clogged, not as bad as I initially imagined. You have to remember, Julia is almost 4, we have had many a clogged toilets...like the time she tried to make an elephant out of toilet paper and flushed and entire roll....

I flush the toilet to see if it will go down, no luck and the water is rising. While I wait for the water to go down, I turn around and switch my laundry. No big deal.

That is when Julia decided it would be a good idea to put all of that toilet water to good use. So what does she do you ask? SHE STICKS HER FOOT IN IT!! My reaction was a bit of a loud one...."WHAT ARE YOU DOING!!!" Of course she was doing what only made sense in her funny little head..."I'm rinsing my foot."

Needless to say, a lot of antibacterial soap later, Julia had a clean foot.
