Chamber Pot

Saturday as we were cleaning the house, Isabelle and I were emptying all the garbages through there house. I noticed the downstairs garbage can had a lot of liquid in it. I asked Jeremiah if he would clean it out for me. Jeremiah gave it a nice sniff and quickly realized it was pee.... So we started questioning our boys.
  Michael did you pee in this garbage can???
     No
  Are you sure because it has pee in it???
    No I swear it wasn't me this time.
Okay.... JOSEPH,
Did you pee in this garbage can?????
    Um yes...
Why in the world did you pee in the garbage can when there is a toilet right next to it?????
    Well I decided I want to see what it was like to live in Colonial Times and wanted to try out a chamber pot.......

At this point Jeremiah and I are trying to hold it together and not let Joseph see us laughing... After I got it under control, I very calmly explained the after using the chamber pot they would have to dump out the pee and clean out the chamber pot after each use.
Joseph seemed abashed after the conversation and decided chamber pots were not that great....

grandpa and I had quite a chuckle. I assume Joseph did the honors.

It's not fun for the person that has to clean them. He is a Prince, and therefore is above such duties. Good thing he doesn't know it:) I am so glad those practices are put to rest!
