Trick or Treat?

Trick or Treat?

On any given day or week, there are periods when any one kid can singlehandedly be more than the proverbial handful. Recently, it seems, probably because he's fast approaching two, Asa's the one keeping me on my toes, but not always...

Yesterday afternoon, Lily left the bathroom sink running for about and hour and discovered that a nearly new container of fish food made for great confetti. Then, this morning, Lily crawled into bed with me at 5:15am. After I fell back asleep(I can almost imagine her waiting for the fact), Lily went to our bathroom and got into all sorts of things --including Heather's make-up...pictured here is the result.

Sometimes...

I just got to wonder why the kids can't get sick more conveniently. Or, at the very least give me some warning that NOW would be the time to cover EVERYTHING in plastic.
