Chapter 10..Life's a hoot..when you always toot
.. this includes the information that boys find every sound or function your body has as the absolute most hilarious thing you have ever seen/heard/smelled ever!! Seriously if they even hear the word pee or even better poop they are sent into hysterical fits of laughter which sometimes results in spitting or drooling which just escalates the laughter even further.
Chapter 11..Stick=Sword, Lego=Gun, Spoon=Dagger
..this is instructions on how boys can and do make pretty much any toy or piece of nature a weapon of some sort.
For years I didn't buy any toy guns not wanting to encourage that kind of play but then found legos could be built into a gun, sticks were anything from lightsabers to daggers and even the fairy wand my daughter had doubled as a sword (unfortunately even by her). So why fight the inevitable and at least get cool Nerf guns and of course my family's weapon of choice the Lightsaber.

Ahh, yes! Someone who can finally write the truth. It is reassuring that boys have not changed over the years. We just shake our heads and say, yes, they are boys. If I had some money for every time I said in exasperation, "WHY DO BOYS DO THAT!", I would be....................
Ha, having boys I can relate to this!
The one thing I've discovered is that they eventually grow up enough not to burst into hysterical laughter - at least in public - with these types of things.
And I could tell the instant my boys decided girls weren't disgusting any more - I never had to nag them about showering again!
My greatest accomplishment is extending #1 beyond just my boys. It took a couple of failed tries to get there, but I got there.
Sorry, girls.
...because blasters are such crude weapons.
