Tuesday, July 27th:
So, got up this morning to Annie (the dog) pacing around our bedroom. Didn’t think much about it…just thought maybe she needed to go out. I finished getting ready, and about 30 minutes later headed into the kitchen to gather up my lunch and stuff to head to work. I knew my son was up, but it sounded like he was just playing and talking as usual. Annie headed right into his room to greet him which is somewhat unusual. However, I quickly realized why she was so excited to see him…he had nearly the entire contents of our pantry in his bedroom having a feast! Yes, you heard me correctly. He had cereal, chips, and CANDY (probably a few other things as well – I lost count)! Of course! We found all the wrappers in the trashcan in his bathroom. At least he had the decency to clean up after himself, right?
