Bafflement

Yesterday, I couldn't quite figure out why there were some ornaments on the coffee table. Then I noticed the fly swat was laying flat on the windowsill and when I lifted it, there was a very dead something squished into the sill... I forgot all about it when I went to feed the baby before bed...

Til this morning.

Teagan was happily munching on muesli (after a mini meltdown when she sussed we'd eaten all the Maltesers from yesterday's visitors and she wanted some with breakfast.. I never agreed to that. And I say 'all' loosely, lovely small box, shared some with visitors, most with her & hubby after dinner... and they were MINE!)

Anyway... back to the mystery fly swat/squished thing...

I asked her 'did you move the ornaments from the windowsill?'

Without any hesitation, she replied 'Yes! I did! I moved them cos there was a fly there and I got it and... and... I did it ALL by myself!!'

I exclaimed 'Welldone T! Next, I'll show you how to clean up afterwards ok?'

'Ok Mummy.'

Mystery solved.
