Here we all were, sitting at our first real meal in about two weeks. Barbequed Chicken, garlic potatoes, rolls, barbequed beans, applesauce, a three tiered coconut cake, and brownies! The sky is dark, and lightning begins. Thunder is heard. The conversation turns to tornadoes. The rain starts to come down hard: sideways!
Just then seven-year-old Jon comes in from the bathroom followed by five-year-old Greg, all excited. Guess what? We just flushed Batman down the toilet!
You flushed a toy down the toilet in our new house? Mom and Dad look at each other in horror. Quick-thinking fifteen-year-old son takes Jon by the hand, and they go into the bathroom. Having done similar things many times before, the fifteen-year-old knows just what to do. He requires Jon to reach down into the toilet and retrieve Batman. Jon proudly returns to the kitchen with Batman looking no worse for the experience. After a thorough hand-washing, everyone returns to the less exciting activity of watching the sideways rain come down.

When I was a toddler, I put an entire litter of toy poodle puppies in the toilet, with the intent of giving them a "bath."
Luckily, my twin sister and I had thrown so much other stuff in there that the puppies had plenty of stuff to cling to until Mom found them. ;)
*shudders*
What a near thing! Yay for the oldest knowing what to do.

It was a batalion of G I JOes going scuba diving at our house!
In my house, the youngest used the toilet as a source of water to slick back his hair. We didn't know how he was doing it until my mom caught him in the act :)
Holey bat-crap Batman!

Mine decided to wash his marbles. The plumber laughed so hard he charged my wife half.
