Belts and Bibles

Is it because they are boys, because they are young, because they don't care, or just because. Every day after school the boys change their clothes - in which I tell the boys to put their shoes away, take the belts out of the pants, and place the belts on a table in their room. So why every morning are we looking for belts? Logic would dictacte that maybe the belt slipped off the table, or the boy forgot to take it out of his pants, but instead we find it 10 days later in with the dress up clothes. "Oh yeah, I forgot we were using it as a leash on K.C. It's pretty much the same on Sunday mornings with Bibles. We use them throughout the week for Frontline, for school. Then comes Sunday morning and they are no where to be found. Since it's now Tuesday and none of the children's Bibles or belts can be found, I guess it's time to clean out the bedroom.

egads, this sounds like our house. The constant song (variations on the verses) goes with a child singing: "Mom, where is my....?" Andy or I get the chorus, variations on "If you put it in the same place every time you will know where it is" or "I dunno, I didn't wear it/use it/touch it last" or "just WHO is responsible for your book/Bible/shoes?"

It doesn't do any good though.
