Swiper the Toddler


I was reading the newspaper last night when Cate comes sprinting past me (only the way a toddler can) to the stairs. Something told me she was up to mischief. When I realized she had come from the candy bowl, I knew she was being sneaky. I hopped off the couch & got to the bottom of the stairs.

"Cate! What do you have?"

"Chocolate, mama!" She holds up a chocolate egg wrapped in purple foil.

Then I notice several green discarded foil wrappers behind her.

"Cate, you can't have any more candy, sweetie." Yes, I took the candy. She had had seriously 10 pieces already.

She laid her little head down & cried crocodile tears. Then ran back to the candy dish LOL!
