"Mama," my seven-year-old son said. "Can I have a bubble bath?"
"Sure," I said. I didn't see any harm in that.
A little while later my son came out of the bathroom with a big grin on his face.
"Why are you smiling?" I asked.
"Oh nothing," he said. "I just had a nice bubble bath."
Hmmm.
My daughter went into the bathroom immediately after my son. Two seconds later: "Mom!!!"
Uh oh.
"There are bubbles all over the place in here, and there are no more bubbles in the bottle!"
"Bubba," I said. "Did you dump the entire bottle into the bath water?"
He grinned sheepishly. "Yeah."
All I could do is shake my head at that one. I bet it was quite a bubble bath!
