After I put Elizabeth in the bathtub last night, I went to Alex's room where she was doing her homework at her desk. "Forget to flush?" I asked her.
"NO!" she said, with the indignant face on, the one that is not always borne out by real events.
"Because I see that the toilet is full, and you were the only one up here."
Rachel chimed in, "is it poop?"
"No," I said.
"I didn't even GO!" exclaimed Alex, her eyes wide in alarm.
"That would mean," I said, leaning in close like a detective pressuring a suspect in the interview room, "that the situation has been brewing since this morning."
Alex said, "Why don't you stick your finger in it and see if it's still warm?"

Excellent way to test the hypothesis :)
