10 Things to Learn From Kids

It's Friday--time for a grin--because a merry heart is like good medicine. So here are ten  things we can learn from our little ones. Enjoy this old email attributed to an anonymous mother in Austin, Texas.

THINGS I'VE LEARNED FROM MY CHILDREN (HONEST AND NO KIDDING!)

A king-size waterbed holds enough water to fill a 2000 sq. ft. house four inches deep.

If you spray hair spray on dust bunnies and run over them with roller blades they can ignite.

If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan, the motor isn't strong enough to rotate a 42-pound boy wearing Batman underwear and a Superman cape.

You should not throw baseballs up to the ceiling when the ceiling fan is on.

A ceiling fan can hit a baseball a long ways.

The glass in windows (even double pane) doesn't stop a baseball hit by a ceiling fan.


When you hear the toilet flush and the words "Uh-oh"--it's already too late.

A 6-year-old can start a fire with a flint rock even though a 36-year-old man says they can only do it in the movies.

The Austin, TX fire dept. has a remarkable response time!

Certain Legos will pass through the digestive tract of a 4-year-old.


May you be spared from the Uh-ohs, baseballs and burning dust bunnies today!
