Notions of a Texas Ranch Girl

Of toilets and marriage

 

Tristan and Morgan have officially decided that kissing is yucky and they don’t want to have anything to do with g-i-r-l-s (except their cousins of course, since they aren’t like other girls).  One day Tristan announced that he is not getting married.  OK, no problem, we didn't even bother telling him he will probably change his mind later.  One day we were cleaning the house, and Tristan’s chore was to clean the toilet.  He told me that he really hated cleaning toilets, could he have a different job?  “Well, Tristan, you have to learn how to clean a toilet, especially since you aren’t getting married.  You’ll be cleaning the toilet yourself when you are older.” He reluctantly set off to clean with Morgan, who was cleaning the sink.  They were chattering away in there when I heard, “You know Morgan, there is ONE good reason to get married.  If you get married, your wife can clean the house and toilet for you.”  Morgan was quiet for a second, and then in a very excited voice said, “Yeah – AND – you can have CAKE!!”  I had to stifle a giggle, then heard Tristan mutter, “Boys can make cake…”
