Look whose going through my cabinet, it's trouble times two. If I am in the kitchen doing something I can assume that within a moment or two Cari or Ellie will be playing in the cabinet near my dishwasher. I have removed all the dangerous items from it and let them have their fun.
This morning, Ellie was busy in the cabinet playing with whatever while Cari was eating a cracker, and playing with toy food. Upon noticing that Ellie had the coveted seat in the house, Cari wanted it to herself. Rather than whine and cry about it, Cari formulated a plan. She brought Ellie both her half eaten cracker and the toy she had in her hand. Ellie was more than happy to get the cracker and the toy and Cari took over Ellie's spot in front of the cabinet.
When I told Mark about this morning's adventure, his comment was "In my industry that could be prosecuted as a bait and switch." My comment back was " in our house this bait and switch could be prosecuted with a time out if someone got sassy." I am happy to report that no timeouts took place. They were very sweet with each other, and I got a good laugh.
