Mischievous Should Be His Middle Name
Billy made me laugh twice yesterday because of the way his mind was working.
We had to tear out the carpet in his old bedroom because with the construction and the massive amounts of rain we were getting. Water kept flooding the carpet near the wall due to exposed foundation, cracks, or whatever. His old bedroom has the tack boards and nails on the floor, so I have to lock the door. I watched him yesterday as he grabbed a set of his play car keys, walked to the doorknob, and tried to unlock the door. It just shocked me and made me laugh...
The second incident again involved the room. Since the drywall guy was here, the door had to be unlocked and left open as he was walking between the three bedrooms to work on each. I have to remind Billy that he's not allowed in there, but he was determined to find a way.
He is very keen on dragging me by my finger to whatever it is that he wants, so he grabbed me from wherever I was and dragged me to the kitchen. I assumed he wanted a cup of juice. He let go of my finger and started pushing me into the kitchen. When he stopped, I was standing by the kitchen doorway, he didn't take me all the way to the fridge. I turned around, and he was sneaking his way back to the hallway to go to the forbidden room!!
What!? Sneaky indeed. What a funny kid.
Then all day he would watch me, waiting for the moment when I wasn't paying attention to him and then furtively make his way down the hall... *sigh* I think this child is going to be sneaking out of the house.
