Keepin' It Real Wednesday

The other day, I heard the toilet flush as Colin walked out of the bathroom. I asked him if he had washed his hands. He replied that he hadn't. I asked him to.

He responded with a big fat NO.

Ready to fight the fight, I told him to again, and got my least favorite question, asked rather defiantly-

WHY?!

I took a deep breath and an idea flashed into my head (inspiration, if you will).

"Didn't President Obama tell you to wash your hands?"

Colin's face went sheepish, and he simply said, "Oh yeah."

Then he immediately walked back in the bathroom, where he scrubbed for a good two minutes.

Thank you Mr. President.
