What was he thinking?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?

Okay, I have a question, what possesses a five year old boy to think that using two glass nail polish bottles to make music would be a good idea? Any answers? I mean really, you find yourself banging two nail polish bottles against each other, do you look down at your hands and think, "Hey, this is pretty cool; I am glad I thought of this!" Of course, that is until the inevitable happens, one of the glass bottles brakes sending nail polish all over your mother's bedroom carpet. My next question is how do you not want to kill your son after that? How do you keep from looking at him and saying, "What in the world were you thinking?" "Were you thinking?" Maintaining self control becomes even harder when he simply explains, "I was just trying to make music." Is he nuts? Is he trying to make me crazy? Or is he trying to see how white trash he can make my carpet? Was it not bad enough that he already christened my carpet with a Now and Later in October?! Is nothing sacred? I'm sorry, I refuse to give in and let my house look like a looney bin. I am determined to teach my children to respect belongings and property, even if it means I loose a little sanity along the way. Well, if you excuse me, I have to see if I can get the nail polish out; if not I have my trusty scissors in hand, because an area where the carpet is a little shorter is better than bright pink polish lines, at least in my book. Wish me luck!

(By the way, for those wondering what I was doing during Braden's music experiment, I was helping Brooke clean her room; I was in fact not kicked back eating bon bons, but that is what I wish I could do right now. Well, maybe not eat bon bons, but a nap would be nice, very nice!)
