For Posterity Sake

Was reading a friend's blog, her post on daughter using her facial scrubber as a foot scrub made me think of an incident we had recently with M2.

So admittedly, she's my least supervised kid and therefore gets into more than her share of mischief, esp in the bathrooms. Like the countless times she's used the other girls' toothbrushes to brush her own, or the handful of times we caught her playing in the toilet water. (To my knowledge, the toothbrushes have never been used in conjunction with the toilet.) But the incident that sticks in my mind is the time M2 discovered a toilet brush.

She'd brought her treasure to the kitchen, where the rest of us were gathered around the remnants of lunch, and happened to be mouthing the handle as she rounded the corner. As I lunged across the room to grab the brush out of her hot little hands, she turned it in just such a way as to run the bristles across her tongue!!! How do you disinfect someone's tongue/mouth?
