more mischief

this time her mischief interrupted our restful night’s sleep…
around 3:30am, little sister came whining into our room. i was deeply asleep so it took her saying it a few times to understand – “my pants are wet…my pants are wet…”

she had wet her bed. this is not like her – as she’s been sleeping in panties for a good year at least with no accidents. and i know she went potty before we went to bed. but, i thought, things happen, and we tried not to make a big deal of it. daddy & i stumbled to duty – i changed little sister and he stripped down the bed. eventually we settled back for a couple more hours of sleep.

then – while packing lunches, daddy discovered the reason behind her unusually full bladder. there in the fridge were 2½ empty bottles of orange juice. my guess is about 20 oz. of liquid in total. i remember her asking for milk after bath last night, so i told her to take a sip from her cup that we keep in the fridge. clearly she chose the juice instead of the milk. (not once, not twice, but three times!)
*sigh* - but at least the lock on the pantry is working…
