    Not yet Mom. They didn’t climb out under their own power. These boots are made for socking … one of these days those boots are gonna sock it to you. (Wow. Flashback).

    Oh, sometimes I add drama to make it fun. My kids laugh hysterically. They think I’m nuts. Oh that’s right, I am… :-)

    Mike “Do they need washing?” not “They need washing.”He was asking a question, not making a statement. Thus, he doesn’t know why she’s upset.

    I think Elly’s answer is quite appropriate. Better than a slap on the head.

    Totally believable. Last summer, my step-daughter wore a pair of socks even to bed, 7 days in a row!!! I asked her to change them every day, but she didn’t. By the seventh day, you could smell her a mile away. We’ve been having hygiene talks all this summer. Her mother must wear a gas mask.
