Conspiracy Theory

Who would have thought it would start so young? Ethan and Andrew conspiring against their mom? I thought I had a few years left to gear up and prepare myself against such attacks :-)

There I was, hiding for our game, "hide and seek," and the conspiracy began. I was laying on the top bunk in the boys room, staying as quiet as possible and laying as flat as possible when I heard Ethan. Ethan found Andrew hiding on the lower bunk and had yet to find me so the conversation went like this:

"Andrew, lay back down and hide."
"Why?"
"Because I want to find mom first so then she has to count next."
"OK."

Sure enough, Andrew laid back down and remained quiet in hopes that Ethan could find me and claim that he found me first so I would have to be the next counter! Can you believe that? They are definitely going to keep me my toes.

Then, to top it off, when Jason came home I explained this all to him. Jason just smiled and said, "That was clever." I said, "No, that was cheating." Jason then said, "It was still clever." GREAT! I can just imagine how the next 15 years are going to go....
