DO IT BY MYSELF BEHIND MOMMA'S BACK

Watch out... Morgan is on the loose!

She has been slightly devilish the last few days!

On Tuesday night the kids and I were playing in the playroom and Morgan wanted to open a new toy. I told her it was too late, but tomorrow she could open it... she didn't like that answer. She disappeared for a few minutes and came back holding a pair of scissors in her hand. She then took the toy she wanted opened and was going to attempt to open it herself. No... I put a stop to that! RJ and I kept playing and Morgan stomped off with her toy (still in the packaging) into the family room. A couple minutes went by and she didn't return and I heard an 'eery' silence. The silence only a Momma can hear! I ran into the kitchen to find Morgan sitting on a chair with her toy (still in it's packaging) on her lap and her holding the handle of a long sharp knife stabbing at the toy (sitting in her lap). AHHHHH! Oh my, thank goodness she was ok! She hadn't stabbed herself YET, I'm so glad I got that Momma intuition! I explained to her what a bad idea she had chosen to do and then she went into time out! I have to admit I gave her a swat on her bottom, she could have really hurt herself! AND she has been told many times before that only adults, Mommas, and Daddies can touch knives. (She could have gotten VERY hurt!) The block of knives needs to be moved to a place little hands can not reach, even when standing on a chair!

I would never have thought Morgan would do that... what you learn after it happens! Mischievous three year olds... and what they teach us!
