This morning I sat my kids down and talked to them all about random drug testing.  I told them that when people are known to do loser things, they get surprise tested to tell important people if they are still losers.  I then told them they were going to be randomly tested.
They were confused.
Then I told them I was pretty confident that none of them were taking drugs, but I was also pretty confident that they were all being a little “loserish” in one aspect of their life.  Then I handed them each a dark purple pill, to expose all of the plaque they left on their teeth after “brushing” just minutes before.

Navy was our best brusher — with only a few minor spots at the gumline.

Pippi has the front tops and bottoms down to a science.  I explained to her that there are also teeth that need attention on the sides of her mouth.

Dash…oh Dash!  I’m glad he had a few clean on the top.  His bottom adult teeth looked like they had been plucked from Barney — the big purple dinosaur’s mouth!

And the biggest embarrassment to our family comes in the form of our oldest child.
Is he kidding?
