This Throwback Thursday video is from November of 2011. Mary Napoli posted it after her sons, age three years and 16 months, got their hands on a bag of flour and in just a matter of minutes managed to spread it everywhere. EVERYWHERE!

The Napolis appeared on the Today show (second video below) to refute accusations that the whole thing was a hoax, and that the family was just trying to gain internet fame.

Oh, this takes me back. (There's no video, and that's probably a good thing.) When my twins were three, it only took a couple of minutes to overflow the bathroom sink. My wife discovered it when she walked downstairs and saw it "raining" in the basement. Water traveled through the heating ducts and knocked out the pilot light on the furnace. It was not a good day.

Later that week, one of them told me, "Mom was SO BOSSY the day we flooded the bathroom."

Have a parenting nightmare? I'd love to hear from you. Share it in the comments section, or email me.
