The things my kids get into.

Maggy and Lila will tell you I am a "been there, done that" kind of mom. I didn't think my kids could surprise me anymore. After lighting spray paint cans on fire under the trampoline, riding motorcycles while standing on the seat, multiple emergency room and principles office visits, I really thought I had done it all. Until last night when I found myself vacuuming tiny glass shards out of my dishwasher. Did you know that some thermoses are pressurized inside? My middle son (nickname, Bruiser) was being good and emptying the dishwasher for me. He told me Dad's thermos had water in it. I told him not to worry about it right now. He proceeded to twist the bottom off the thermos, which was glued to the glass inner part, and the pressure inside caused the whole thing to explode. Luckily my stunned little boy was not hurt just very worried he was in trouble. My entire kitchen was covered in glass fragments. So yeah, now I can say I have vacuumed out my dishwasher. What will they come up with next? *shudder*
