Installment 2

of "Why My Children Should Never Be Left Unattended For Two Seconds Together"Ruby escaped before I got the camera on this one. The girls managed to get hold of a box of tissues and pretty much emptied the whole thing. The carnage was much worse than appears in the picture. Just out of view up the stairs we have a gate, on the opposite side of the gate was a whole pile of tissues.

What was I doing while this occurred? Making dinner. And, before I knew exactly what the girls were up to, I was thinking how nice it was they were entertaining themselves so well and playing so great together that they weren't trying to help me in the kitchen. It's amazing how well they play together when they're into something they shouldn't be.

That's always how it is. (At least with other people's kids -- like I said, mine are never like that...)

This is a random thought, having nothing to do with any installments of why you should never leave your adorable youngin's alone. Maybe if you change the title of this blog to, "DEMANDING SPRING!" the weather would cooperate. Sometimes you need to be a little assertive. Just sayin'. It would be much obliged by the rest of us. :)

Whenever it gets quiet - I get scared. Unfortunately, sometimes the quiet is just so nice that I ignore it a little longer before investigating! It sounds like your girls are really going to keep you hopping! :)
