"Dad, I'm just washing your hair with my mouth", was the sweet response to a dad's question of "What are you doing?". The story behind this phrase goes as such:
So, as I’m laying on the couch taking a nap (or, at least trying to) on Thanksgiving day I feel something nuzzling up behind me and then things get weird. I start to hear a slightly disturbing slurping sound and then I feel an even more disturbing moisture start to form on the back of my head. I ask: "What are you doing, dude?" And below, in the sweetest voice ever, was her response.
"When my daughter was about three years old we were getting ready for preschool and her hair was really messy, so I told her that she looked disheveled. She replied to me, "I want to hold the shovel!" She thought I was talking about a shovel when I said disheveled :) So now anytime either of us is looking messy, we say, "You need to hold the shovel!" "
