OLD PEOPLE DUST!!

The other day my kids and i were talking just casually and my ten year old . bless his heart he is so funny:) i couldn't help but laugh at him an i still chuckle today. I am standing in front of the washer with the mound of clothes that manage to appear magically on a daily basis. I don't know how it happens or if there is this laundry fairy that dumps clothes in the basket or on the kids bedroom floors. But i am about to find me that fairy and make sure she doesn't sprinkle laundry on my floor no more. Why cant i get one of those fancy fairies that sprinkle the good stuff like pretty shinny dust or money for heavens sake? Anyhow he asks me inquisitively mommy why r you washing your sheets again? Not like my kids don't already think that i am crazy already because i have this clean freak issue that they don't understand and probably never will. I mean how did I manage to breed children that are the sloppiest kids on earth? I turn to him and say Elijah well grandpa stayed here last night with you and your sister while I was at work. He looks at me puzzled and says uhhhhhhhh YEAH? Well my dad you see has psoriasis. And if anyone knows what psoriasis is it is a skin disease that causes severely dry skin that flakes off and i mean all over the place kinda like a surprise snow storm on a summer day.Well he has it in his hair and not just a little like really bad and all over. So when he stays with my kids when I am at work he sleeps in my bed because I don't sleep there anyhow.(The couch has become my bestie) because like I ever get to sleep anyhow!! So he stayed at my house the other day and I guess his psoriasis has been really bad lately because I had little white flakes all over the place UGHHHHHHHHHHH I love my father but I cant be honest and tell him hey dad you know your leaving your dry skin all over the place!!. But anyhow back on track my son looks at me and I look at him and he says I know mom!! I was surprised and i said what do you know Elijah? You have to wash your sheets because well.....grandpa has flaky skin and it gets everywhere!! the other night. He further goes on to explain when grandpa stayed here. I said yes?.... He said he got stuff everywhere and it got in my hair that's why when you were fixing my hair the other day i had grandpa flakes in my hair because he is shedding.... ha ha OH MY GOODNESS..... Shedding? Whatever do you mean he looks at me so innocently and so serious at the same time and said you know OLD PEOPLE DUST!! I liked to have died laughing so this is what i get to live with everyday my kids are so funny and they always say things that I would never imagine. I LOVE MY KIDS. Thanks Elijah for the funny story i love you baby boy.
