Yeah, I kinda felt the hissy rising up within me when I saw those feet, but, my cupboard doors and walls are clean now! I’m thinkin’ it’s a good trade. And you know they scoured those counter-tops when they were done with the higher stuff!
My mother would have a hissy fit at the sight of feet on her counters. I, myself, encourage it if it helps get the work done. Gotta love the knife!
I love it! Great pictures, great list of quotes, great boys!

PS… good copywork too
Huge is the word!
Pretty sure he can’t breathe without it!
Gotta love the huge knife!
They are really working hard, but does he really need the knife to wipe down walls? Boys and their weapons…so funny!
