An Eight Year Old Boy and a Jar

Dec 27, 2010

If you ask an eight year old boy for help in the kitchen,

expect the unexpected, because life with an eight year old boy in the house is a non stop adventure.

And yes that is what it looks like. Isn’t that how everyone opens a jar?

    If that were my dad as an 8-year-old, there’d be some black powder there somewhere 🙂

    Ha ha! I am here to tell you it’s not much different if it’s a 4o something year old man and he’s a dairy farmer!

    We have a pair of channel locks in the drawer next to the refrigerator for just that purpose! 🙂 I like your son’s method. 😉 I’ve found that putting a thick rubber band on the lid and then turning usually work just as well though … most of the time. Finally, as the mother of soon to be 23-year old son, I’ll tell you that the adventure is just beginning. 8 is a very good age!

      @Shirley @ gfe, I actually thought he was being creative and came up with a solution which is good. It was the size of the tool that he choose that I could not believe. 🙂 We do have tools smaller than that. 🙂

    That’s the same tool 2 23 year old “boys” removed a wire from a partially frozen turkey for me once. They don’t outgrow it.
