This is the sight that greeted me when I came home today after leaving the kids home alone while I was at work. Tonight I am writing out a detailed list of chores that absolutely must be completed before they can burn their stuffed animals at the stake. Meanwhile, the kitchen showed signs of use as well. I had to resist the strong urge to wipe up and wash out...after all...I wanted to have something for the little darlings to do tomorrow when I leave them alone again. See, that's the "fun" of going to work...you never know what surprises await you once you return home. It was so "exciting" to find mystery stains on the couch pillows and such a "joy" to notice how many pots and pans had been used in a single day. I especially liked discovering that honey was a part of lunch today. So now I'm left wondering which is better: having to monitor every single move your toddler makes...or being completely unaware of your teenager's activities. Yes, I know, "good" parents know everything their teen is up to....but still....ignorance is bliss!!
