the setting....
I enter the shower, after getting them dressed, after diaper changing, after giving the children, beings of my blood and flesh, their full course breakfast....protien, dairy, fruit, startch.....FULL COURSE.......
about 5 min into the shower..........pounding and frantic knocking on the door, door flings open, cries of terror.......
"Natalie is eating the candy"......."tim then take it away from her and put it high up on the counter"........"No she's eating candy from the cup in the living room".....(*-*BREATH*-*)..."then take the whole cup and put it in the kitchen".........."Ok".

After shower out I come, knowing full well she ate some of my candy.......my Present.......My Christmas Present.......MINE - ALL MINE....the shower wasn't the only thing steaming.........

how much did she eat?
the picture i saw....
1. Empty Mug on table.
2. Ripped Open celephane bag next to it - celephane DOES NOT tear well, and it was tied into a knot with christmas ribbon.......who said babies are not rocket scientists???
3. about TEN wrappers of hershey kisses, lying all over the living room floor.
4. about FOUR wrappers of reeses cups

unbelievable - if i didn't see the chocolate covered cheeks, hands, nose, shirt of my little....oh what did the dictionary call her?......LARCENOUS, THIEFING, daughter - i would have thought only my four year old could have done that.

the above took less than 10 min.
approximate time it took for her to eat a decent lunch - 35 min


chocolate, not diamonds, is my daughter's hearts desire and best friend.
