Once upon a time, there was a little boy who found some magic beans. He didn't have to trade his cow for them or anything; he just happened upon them one early-spring day. Sadly, as the boy was playing with them in his parents' bathroom, they fell down the sink. His daddy was so angry that he made the little boy throw all the rest of his precious magic beans in the trash can. The poor little boy was so sad! But the daddy's sink wasn't working right and the daddy tried to plunge it but it didn't work. So the boy lost his privilege to have any more magic beans. A few days later the sink was still not draining efficiently so the boy's mommy told the daddy that they needed to fix the sink--it was, after all, their beautiful new house. So the daddy took apart the plumbing under the sink and the drain stop (lots of beans were stuck all around it) and poured out the water into the toilet and then put the beans in the trash. But then the mommy noticed the most amazing thing! The beans had started to sprout! In a few more days, the mommy and daddy would have had magic bean sprouts growing out of their bathroom sink drain!
Maybe the boy can have some more magic beans later in the spring if he promises to plant them in the GARDEN this time...

Ha, I loved this story. Good thing you got that drain cleaned out! Thank heaven for little boys right? :)
Your kids are sooo cute! That story was too funny!
OK, so what would have happened if those beans grew into a nice plant and sprouted out from the draines?
I see the makings of a new sci-fi kids movie or book!
Better in the sink than up a nose! My aunt had a very stinky sprout growing from her nostril! We've haven't had beans in the sink or up the nose yet...but other interesting treasures up noses!!
