Grublets (with Thanks to Nathaniel)
I had just given my girls a bath one hour before, and it's not permanent grime. It is, however, spring and summertime grime, which means for the next 4 months or so, you can expect lots of grubby faces. Please remember this disclaimer before you decide to call Social Services.

Love the name of this post-and the message. I always think that too. Barefoot children with dirty faces and hands-just BEGS for SS to come.
Tis the season!
And look! I just discovered that you can buy Nathaniel the Grublet here! The only copy in existence of which I was aware was the one that we brought home from Aunt Shirley's room after she died, and it's worn thin from years of listening (hers and ours). Hurrah!
Another reason to live in the hills is that so many grubby children run about that nobody cares to notice. In town, though, there's too high a concentration of overly observant folk.
Secret Service.
Social Services.
Squeaky (clean, not) Soiled.
