Even Royalty Must Bathe

I got the bath ready to give my little girls a shower while they tidied up their room.  When I stepped out to tell them it was ready, they had apparently finished cleaning up.  In the meantime, they had set up a small tea party and donned fancy princess dress-up slippers and teapot-lid crowns -  and nothing else.  I burst into a laugh, at which the older one said "Are you laughing because we're naked? - Because we have to be naked so you won't yell at us for not being ready when you come to get us for our shower."  I told her I appreciated the practicality of their simple costumes, and requested that their highnesses please remove their crowns and shed their shoes so that I might bathe them...
