Bribery will get you everywhere!

Since it's Fun Friday, I thought I would start by sharing a personal funny story that is completely unrelated to Tiber River.  My youngest daughter started Montessori preschool a couple of weeks ago.  In order to go, she needed to be potty trained and I thought it would be a breeze since my eldest caught on in a day.  I decided to bribe her with jelly beans, which worked well but for only part of what she was required to do (if you are catching my drift) because she kept saying "she didn't know how". 

On Monday night, she saw a doll she really wanted at Costco so I told her if she went #2 on the potty I would buy it for her.  On Tuesday night she suddenly marches upstairs claiming "I am going to go on the potty".  She bypasses her potty, goes right to the regular toilet, does her business, and says "I want my doll".  It was hilarious, kids are so smart!

Here's my silly story for the week, and one that those who aren't big fan of early mornings will enjoy: Yesterday I was so tired and exhausted when I woke up early to go to work. I stumbled into the shower and started washing my face, but something didn't seem quite right. Then I realized...I was washing my face with shampoo!!! Some how I had grabbed the shampoo and was soaping up with that instead of my Grab Life by the Pomegranates cleanser! Not sure how I managed that, but some how I did. :) I was laughing out loud at myself in the shower - that definitely woke me up with a laugh to start my day!

First, I just want to say "hi" to Sara! "Please come by Kenaston for a visit".

My funny story happened today when I opened the kitchen cupboard to grab a plate, and sitting on top of the plate was the brick of cheddar cheese I thought I had put away in the fridge earlier.
