I found this on a new friends blog, she as well has 3 boys. AHHHH how true this rings!
Raising Boys The following came from an anonymous Mother in Austin, TX.... Things I've learned from my Boys (honest and not kidding): 1. A king size water bed holds enough water to fill a 2000 sq. ft. house 4 inches deep. 2. If you spray hair spray on dust bunnies and run over them with roller blades, they can ignite. 3. A 3-year-old boy's voice is louder than 200 adults in a crowded restaurant. 4. If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan, the motor is not strong enough to rotate a 42-pound boy wearing a Batman underwear and a Superman cape. It is strong enough, however, if tied to paint can, to spread paint on all four walls of a 20 X 20-foot room. 5. You should not throw baseballs up when the ceiling fan is on. When ceiling fan is used as a bat, you must throw the ball up a few times before you get a hit. Ceiling fans hit a baseball a long way. 6. The glass in windows (even double-pane) doesn't stop a baseball hit by a ceiling fan. 7. When you hear the toilet flush and the words "uh oh", it's already too late! 8. Brake fluid mixed with Clorox makes smoke... and lots of it. 9. 80% of men who read this will try mixing Clorox with brake fluid. 10. A six-year-old boy can start a fire with a flint rock even though a 36-year-old man says they can only do it in the movies. 11. Certain Lego's will pass through the digestive tract of a 4-year-old boy. 12. Play Dough and microwave should not be used in the same sentence. 13. Super Glue is f-o-r-e-v-e-r. 14. No matter how much Jell-O you put in a swimming pool, you still can't walk on water. 15. Pool filters do not like Jell-O. 16. VCRs do not eject "PB &J" sandwiches even though TV commercials show they do. 17. Garbage bags do not make good parachutes. 18. Marbles in gas tanks make a lot of noise when driving. 19. You probably DO NOT want to know what that odor is. 20. Always look in the oven before you turn it on; plastic toys do not like ovens. 21. The Fire Department in Austin, TX has a 5-minute response time. 22. The spin cycle on the washing machine does not make earthworms dizzy. 23. It does, however, make cats dizzy. 24. Cats throw-up twice their body weight when dizzy. 25. Those who pass this on to almost all of their friends, with or without boys do it because: a. For those with no children - this is totally hysterical! b. For those who already have children past this age, this is hilarious. c. For those who have children this age, this is not funny. d. For those who have children nearing this age, this is a warning. e. For those who have not yet had children, this is birth control.
