the total and utter catastrophe of the toddler to popsicle scenario modified here into a bath-extending, photo-opting, money-saving and childhood-memory building tradition. my boys, who largely hate taking baths as many boys do, jump at the chance to have their hair washed because they know there's some cherry goodness involved. and what better way to teach a one year old the finer points of summer refreshment than to practice all winter long in the privacy of the tub? after a few popsicle sticks have built up my engineer of a four year old sticks them to the walls of the bath with bar soap. he once drafted the outline of St. Paul's Cathedral. i'm kidding.
