...if these were the last photos on your little point and click (hooray for laptops with sneaky memory card slots I say!) and said camera was now refusing absolutely to turn on or power up, with its little lens stuck in the extended position. And you found said camera had been carefully placed somewhere *out of sight*. Then, just hypothetically, mind, what would be your guess of its final moments?
Yeah, that's what I thought too. Subsequently backed up by two particularly guilt-ridden and shifty little individuals when the entire story came tumbling out. (And just an aside, but I do rather adore the trying-to-put-one-over-on-you-except-we-somehow-completely-lack-the-where-with-all-to-lie-even-though-we-wish-we-didn't-and-we're-doing-our-best-to-remedy-that-right-this-instant stream of consciousness thing with 3 year olds. And probably not least of all because I know the rascally bit isn't going to be over any time soon, but they're probably going to get much better at the covering up, what with upskilling and all. eek)
Of course, this post could just as easily be titled Why you don't go to the loo whilst your little fish are in the spa pool (even if you are way within hearing distance and it's only to pee.) Why do I have the sinking feeling that this will not be the last post of this nature here?
Sheesh, the insurance company is going to love us!
Budding Jacques Cousteau apprentices on your hands, I see. Sorry, Jol, I'm siding with them. Sometimes the temptation is simply too great.... LOL

I laughed so hard reading this! As a mother or nearly two year old cheeky twin girls I can't wait for the stories they come up with. Our current collection of words only consists of mummy, dad, car, fish and various animal noises so bring on the "it wasn't our fault mummy ....".

I sided with them too....I say curiosity always wins out (just don't tell the insurance company! lol)

Deb, the tidal wave is coming...prepare yourself! :) It's easily the most fun and the most chaos ...and often mind-bending logic thrown in there too. And then wait until they start *telling* on each other....fun fun times!
