Booby Traps and Ethan



So I was sitting on the couch this morning reading a good book, when the doorbell rings. I of course assume it is the kids (they ring it alllllll day long and then run away) so I ignore the bell and continue reading. About 10 seconds later there is a knock (the kids never knock) so I get up and answer the door. I open the door and see the hose hanging in my face, standing there with the door open I am a little slow to react, water starts pouring from the hose and into the house. I close the door and start yelling for Ethan to turn it off. He comes in through the other door and asks me if I am mad. I try to keep a straight face (trying not to laugh) and say "Yes! But it WAS really funny and a very clever trap, don't do it again, you got water in the house." He jumps up and down whooping saying "Whoohoo! one of my traps worked!!" (he tries setting traps all the time) I now see him outside with a bucket and a bunch of bungee cords. Hmmmmmm......
