Wednesday night I am cooking dinner and Lizzy is talking to Luke and James comes into the kitchen for a second and then disappears. I really didn't pay any attention to him. Lizzy then says, "mom, James just asked me if i wanted a mint". I said, " what?" I then went up to his room.As i enter his room he hurries and shoves the remaining Altoids in his mouth. yes-crumbs were coming out the side of his mouth. he had eaten half a box of Altoids. I then look over and see he had gotten my purse and dumped it out to find what he wanted. oh boy.
Then Thursday comes along. again, time to make dinner and James grabs the loaf of bread off the counter. I quickly snatch it back as i see in my mind the bag breaking open. i tell him no food as i am making dinner. he disappears mad. i go back to making dinner and not 1 minutes later Lizzy comes down stairs and says mom, look. she had a box of kix in her hand. Mom, James had this in his room, come look. I followed her to see a trail of kix crumbs leading to his room. I honestly don't know how i missed him grabbing the cereal from the pantry. oh boy, what will he steal tomorrow?
