Although extremely personable and charming, Charlie is most definitely relentlessly naughty. Luckily for me, though, I have an older child who is happy to play the informer. Thus, the following news bulletins were relayed to me by Cubby during dinner preparations today:
"Charlie's using the phone!"
"Charlie's in the spice drawer!" (Which was the end of a full cup of zataar.)
"Charlie's crawling under the chair with the cat!"
"Charlie's got the fire tool and is dropping it into the stove!"
That last one earned a "DAMMIT" from me, which of course was repeated by my small mimic.
I might resort to frozen pizza one of these days, if only to save my nerves.
In which I learn what za'atar is.
