That's soo funny!! When my son was little and he had a bath I always would put baby powder on him. Well, one day we had a fish fry, flour, cornmeal, etc. After dinner, before clean-up, went into FR to relax for a couple of minutes. Realized I hadn't seen son. Went into kitchen and he was about 1 1/2yrs at this time. He somehow got the flour bag down and was sitting in the cornor rubbing flour all over him. It was absolutely everywhere!!! :lol: :lol: I gave bath while ex-H got the shop vac!! What an ordeal!! :lol: :lol: Still can picture this!!

Give up. Give up now. Two years later and I am still cleaning up drywall dust from our remodel. Still mad at DH for not springing for the negative pressure system.

Many years ago, as a tired single mom who had
laid down for a nap, I felt a little hand lifting my
eyelid and one little 4 year old calmly saying to
the 5 year old, "Let's not tell Mom the gold fish
don't like corn meal."

Of course that woke me up instantly...the gold
fish bowl was half full of corn meal, with a rather
bewildered fish trying to avoid the new little
mountain in his bowl.

Then there was the time they were fighting and
burst a bag of pinto beans, and a tired mommy
told them to pick up every one of them. The
last one of them was picked up but the garbage
was already taken out, so the oldest, at 5 years
old, didn't have a pocket so of course stuck that
last bean up her nose. A couple of days later it had
swelled up so I took her to the doctor, who
removed her swollen and starting to grow bean
at great expense...

Ahh, kids. The further back things happened, the
more fun I remember having.

Me too!! Re-doing family room down stairs. Have door closed. Door didn't stop the dust from going up stairs! We do spackeling in 3 intervals...spackel sand, spackel sand, spackel sand... what a mess!
that is why we have used blue board & plaster....no sanding!! just prime & paint.

Oh my! My husband and I chuckled with you. I hope you were able to hold it in while your little guy was telling you it was all okay!!! I have tiled countertops too and the best thing I can suggest is to use a toothpick or shishkabob stick. Sorry, don't have anything better that won't damage the seal on the grout. You have to give him credit though, he did try. But I'm sure he will forever remember you don't clean up flour with water.

Me, too! One of my favorite memories is of a then-6-year -old daughter (my second one) who came home from a field trip to the zoo and proceeded to tell me (in front of Grandma and Uncle) that she had seen an a**hole at the zoo! I nearly died laughing, but what she meant was that she had seen a donkey (jackass)! I don't tell that story often, but it's a precious memory for me!
