angel? devil?
See this little guy? Doesn't he look angelic with his blue eyes, blond hair and innocent smile? Well, don't believe it for a second. He can be a devil in disguise when he wants to.
Yesterday morning I needed to take a shower and he had already watched his allotted amount of tv for the day. Usually I let him watch tv while I shower to occupy him and keep him out of trouble. I didn't want to let him watch anymore tv so I decided that he was getting old enough to be trusted. That's where I went wrong.
I took a quick shower, probably 7-8 minutes max. When I got out, I caught him in the act of squishing a tube of blue gel toothpaste in the sink. A few minutes after that I saw that he had smashed his snack crackers all over the kitchen table and chair and floor. Then shortly after that I found a box of Floss with all the Floss pulled out. A pretty productive 8 minutes for my little angel.
