We Do It By The Numbers

1. I'm sick with a head cold.

2. My voice comes and goes.

3. Tessa found my wallet in my purse and snuck it out onto the deck and casually threw all of my cash into the back yard. Then she opened the change pocket and (one-by-one) dropped each coin through the deck boards. Then she took out each credit card, bank card, etc. and buried them in her sandbox.

4. I didn't find out until way too late.

5. While running around the yard after my money, Tessa got my glass of water from the table and stuffed a scarf into it and then dumped the whole thing onto the couch.

6. I didn't find out until I sat down.

7. While I was squeezing out the scarf in the sink, Tessa removed all of the books from an entire row of our bookshelf and THREW them around the room.

8. I knew she was doing this and hid in the kitchen.

9. When I finally went to pick up the books, Tessa rolled her baby's stroller out onto the deck and filled the cloth seat up with sand from her sand box.

10. I went to peel potatoes for dinner in the kitchen and heard a strange sound. Like sand.

11. I walked in on Tessa grabbing two huge handfuls of sand out of the stroller and throwing them backwards over her shoulders all over the living room.

12. Daddy got home late tonight and didn't call ahead of time.
