confessions of a cookie monster




while running a bath for the little ones...

Me: Come on Wyatt! Time for a bath!



from the other room...

W: In a minute!


Me: Elijah's getting in! Your water's going to get cold!


W: ...



minutes later he comes running full tilt into the bathroom

Me: Quick! Undress and get in!



whispering

W: The cookies are all gone.


Me: Really?


still whispering

W: Yep. I ate them. I was being sneaky.


Me: It's not nice to be sneaky. You should ask permission.


W: I wasn't being sneaky. I was... doin' a secret.


Me: ... (stifling a laugh and wondering when my three year old mastered semantics)


looking puzzled like he's not sure if he's in trouble or not

W: Mama?


Me: What Wyatt?


W: You needa buy more cookies.


Elijah: TOOKIES!
