I  look at my son. He has chocolate all over his face, remnants of the reward for helping me in the yard. His face may be the cleanest part of him. I say, “Guess who needs a bath today.”

He studies his hands for a moment and says, “Well, I’m clean.”

Dirt, it appears, is in the eye of the beholder.
