After dinner has been thrown against the wall and half eaten off the floor and hidden in the deep crevices of the neck, my favorite part of the evening comes when I plop the kids down in the bathtub for a little contained playtime. I get to perch on the toilet and enjoy a glass of wine while Catcher and Scout get to splash each other in the face, drink dirty bath water and eat bubbles--it's a win win!
Some nights Catcher is an engineer who creates a super-train by lining up all his vehicles--airplane, taxi, helicopter, etc.--on the rim of the bathtub. Sometimes he's a gas station attendant sending cars through the carwash. Tonight he was a stylist as he dressed Scout in the latest ready-to-wear fish collection. It actually kind of looks like she's wearing a fascinator of sorts, so maybe he's on to something. If British royalty somehow gets a hold of this, he could be the next big thing. Just remember you saw it here first.
