Scissors and Milk

"Cricket? What are you doing?"

It was way too quiet upstairs...I had been downstairs swapping out a new load of laundry.
I noticed she is trying to quickly put something back on the little table in the dining room.

"What did you have?"
"Scissors!"
"Where did you get scissors?" I was searching for blood and what she might have been cutting.
"I use scissors-Bella's dress..."

Lord have mercy...there was the victim. Bella's favorite blue princess dress up dress. Once sweet and lovely, now it has a slashed punk rock feel. I must admit her cutting skills were much better than I thought...Thank God she didn't cut herself, the curtains, the dog...Well hopefully Bella won't want to play dress up today.

Fast forward a few hours...
"Mom, where's my dress up dress?"
Murphy's law...

After dinner, Chris usually hangs out with the girls before bed. Tonight he wanted to show them a few new games he downloaded onto his iphone. Bella played first, then Charlotte.

"Mom-Dad, Charlotte did something VERY naughty!"

We ran into the dining room to find Chris' iphone covered in milk...I think my heart stopped for a moment...Charlotte had been playing this game called iNeko. The point or lack there of in this game is to touch different areas of the screen to get the kitty to run around after your finger. The kitty can get smaller or larger, take a nap, meow, scratch, and of course chase its tail. The girls love this crazy kitty!

After Chris cleaned up the mess and made sure his phone worked, he laughed.
"It's funny when you think about it. She was just giving the cat some milk!"
