The broom kind of gave it away.

March 7, 2014 by not your average mom 3 Comments

Numbers 5, 6, and 7 were playing very nicely this morning.

So nicely that I was able to get a bunch of stuff done.

Number 5 was doing her own thing.

Numbers 6 and 7 were playing together in the playroom.

They were fairly quiet.

Quiet enough that I was sure they were doing something wrong.

I looked in on them periodically while I cleaned up and put away laundry.

Every time I checked in on them, they were behaving and cooperating.

I kind of let my guard down.

I lost track of time, and I was in the kitchen.

Number 6 came running through the kitchen and into the mudroom.

“Mommy! It’s okay. We aw doing NOTHING!”

He ran out of the mudroom and back through the kitchen carrying a broom.

“What is the broom for?” I asked him.

“It’s not foh the mess that Numbuh 7 made!” he said, and he sprinted back to the playroom.

One of these days…

One of these days, I’ll learn my lesson.

    My son is only two but I have already learned that if he is quietly “playing” alone, something bad is about to happen. Is it wrong that sometimes I take my chances anyway just to get a couple of things done? 🙂

    Ahahhaha, you must be more worried when they get quiet because surely they are doing something fishy. LOL
