You must understand that now is not the time for everything to be in its place - at least not the place you expect everything to be. So if your toddler one day leads you proudly to the computer to show you how to eject the DVD-ROM, you must not be surprised when your debit card pops out.
Please be sure to laugh off the clouds of smoke caused when you press the toaster button without realizing that it had become storage for your toddler's crinkle fish collection.
And the toddler sincerely believes that the dog's food and water should occupy the same dish, not two separate ones. Very space-saving of him.
So similarly, when the toddler tells you that his blue Bakugon is inside the subwoofer, take this as a matter-of-fact. You know then that there are already other things inside the subwoofer.
I admit to having fished out a number of objects already from the subwoofer. My method was not well received by darling hubby. (But why shouldn't I vigorously shake the subwoofer up and down?) It occurred to me this time that the toddler is now at a sufficient size to do his own fishing.
Oh no, son, you are going to have to really reach in there.
We'll use the side table for collection.
Final tally: three plastic balls (purple, green and red), one soft baseball, a ball in a cylinder, one semi, three straws, a (mostly) empty Capri Sun pouch, a Little People farmer, two rubber sheep, an Oakley sunglasses pouch, a fabric book cover, three crayons (yellow, orange and gray), a strange foam square, and TMNT Donatello's bo staff.
No blue Bakugon.
I was wondering where I'd left my bo staff and orange crayon.
