You what?...

As the boys were moving through their nightly routine...

I asked Joshua,
"Did you brush your teeth?"

To which he replied, "Yes, now I'm getting a drink."

Then I noticed that he still had gum in his mouth so I asked again...
"Joshua did you brush your teeth?" If you did, then what did you do with your gum?"
And he quickly replied, "I placed it carefully behind my ear."
