One afternoon, a few weeks ago, I was baking with the kids. We had to wait for one of the cookie sheets to be done in the oven before loading it up again with another batch of dough. So I told the kids to go play, and we'd meet back up again 7 minutes.
We reconvened, and I noticed Cole was chewing something. I asked what it was, and he said it was nothing. I asked again, and Lauren, apparently developing a conscience, said "we have to tell the truth".
After a little more questioning, Cole finally confessed to taking some chewy fruit snack packets from the pantry and eating them - in his closet. I went there to find around 10 empty packets, carefully concealed beneath some clothes on the floor. He'd apparently eaten 8 packets earlier in the morning, and just shared the final 2 with Lauren. Sneaky, sneaky.....
