Lost Phone

Monday morning Shaun is looking for his cell phone all over the house. Unable to locate it, he asks me for help. Had I seen it? No Do I know where it could be? Yes

Me: Beckett, have you seen daddy's phone?
Beckett: No, I haven't. It's in my room.

Crystal Lite and Papa Rocks

So, last week Beckett observed his sister eating "Papa Rocks" aka pop rocks. This is a funny thing because I was under the assumption that these ridiculous candies were banned for causing injury to the mouths of the souls that tried to eat them.... but whatever. Anyway, Evelyn was happily eating her papa rocks and Beckett was pretty upset about it. Where was his papa rocks? Didn't he get any?

Well, he decided to make some for himself. I was in the bedroom and I heard him scream. Never good. When I found him he was in the kitchen with an entire package of Crystal Lite 'lemon tea' mix dumped into his mouth..... I had forgotten that we even had it in the house, but like any kid, he was magically able to locate whatever he set his heart on. I scooped him up. Told him in no uncertain terms that what he was eating was "NOT CANDY!!". If he hadn't been crying he probably would have screamed, "DUH!!!" in my face. I wiped out as much as a could with a paper towel and tried to give him a drink of water. He took it, and then, in a voice peppered with desperation, said "IT TASTES LIKE TEA!!!!"

The End
