every summer i fight an epic battle with the ants. i hate the ants, i mean really hate the ants. i want them to die, die, die. this year has been particularly bad. it's really hard to keep the floors in pristine condition when you have three kids to take care of, or is that just me?
these pictures, however, could explain part of my problem:
someone has been feeding the ants! and yes, it was maria who, since she's been about two-years-old, has considered the ants her "friends".
truth be told i actually blame ethan for this particular incident. a few days before this happened he and the kids saw a bunch of ants on our sidewalk. ethan thought it would be fun to gather some different kinds of food and see which ones the ants like best. turns out they love cheese. i think maria was just trying to recreate this experiment in the house. we had a discussion about how feeding the ants in the house on purpose is not okay.
another day i had to discuss the fact that it is not okay to try to kill ants by covering them with yogurt . . .

Hahahahahahaha! Oh, Maria and her ant friends. I like the part about the yogurt. I'm laughing so hard right now. Little kids are too funny!

This is sooooo funny!! I see that Maria is still the ant whisperer. It is only funny because it is not happening to me. Sorry Shannon.
