"We have to take your clothes off before you come into the bath." About 10 times by each bath.
"Come out of the kitchen sink now! It's not a bathtub!" At least I got good pics of him sitting in the sink with the water running.
"Markers are for paper only, not stomachs, faces, or hands."

This isn't about nudity or anything, but I never ever thought I'd tell a kid of mine, "sorry, you may not sleep in school, even though I know it's your favorite place in the whole wide world, no we cannot call your teacher again we already called her twice today, yes I know you love school Puke

." I was a horror in school and it frightens me how differently my kids are turning out in that respect.
