8am on a Sunday morning, the girls were up and ready to leave the house for soccer practice when we heard a loud scream!
SCREAM!!!
The Hubs and I, we’re not used to waking so early on a Sunday morning, so this morning was no different. He had made a Goober Grape sandwich for T1 and whilst she gobbled it, he hurried into the washroom to brush his teeth. I was moving at cheetah pace packing stuff and getting things ready when T1 walked in to ask me what shoes she should wear for her first soccer practice and a little discussion ensued. She then left to go back to breakfast presumably and that’s when the scream happened.
“My sandwich is GONE!!!” My first thought was Where’s T2? Where’s T2?
My worst fear was to have T2 take her sister’s sandwich because as soon as T1 got to her, there would be mayhem, so I quickly dashed to all rooms and arrived just in the nick of time together with T1 in the master bedroom.
“MOM!!!! T2 is eating my sandwich!!! Look! And it’s almost FINISHED!!!!”
There she was, the little sandwich monster, chomping happily the last 2 bites of her sister’s sandwich whilst watching her father brush his teeth. I immediately told T1 we’d make her another sandwich when she looked visibly upset. But when I teasingly scolded the baby by calling her the sandwich monster, T1 lightened up.
Poor T1. She was happily eating her sandwich and this is why I tell her, she should never bring her plate to the floor because the baby will think it is hers. I leave T2’s snacks on a plate on the floor for her like a dog and that’s the way she likes it. She will play her toys and roam around and come round to her dog’s bowl to have a nibble whenever she’s feeling peckish.
So beware whenever you eat at my home. The sandwich monster may strike at any time.
