Tonight while M was at a birthday party I let Z take a bath all by himself. I was in my room folding laundry. When I checked on him 15 minutes later (the bathroom door was open so I could hear him if he needed me) I discovered him THROWING BUCKETS of water onto the floor. There was 3 inches of standing water and I, quite frankly, did not know how to handle it! I was at a complete loss! How do you clean up that much water??? Finally I just threw down every towel we owned which were immediately soaked through and dripping. So I am now doing 3 loads of towels tonight, but the bathroom floor is SPARKLING:) (I also said another prayer for all those people in New Orleans. If I can't handle 3 inches in a contained area I can't imagine how they coped at all.)
*Post-script: I am very sorry I laughed during Hurricane Erma. What goes around comes around, right hobbitsister?? :P

I probably would've handled it almost exactly as you did (i.e. freaking out & not knowing what to do & using up all the towels:). I don't know if I could raise kids... that is nice though that it made you think of & pray for the hurricane katrina victims :)
what goes around comes around, doesn't it, busy?
you handled it better than i, though, seeing as how you thought to pray. good job.
