Caught red-handed

This afternoon, Joshua took half day leave to help me take care of Joash while I rest. I woke up to something that resembles a scene of crime.

As I stepped out of the room, I saw my box of clorets on the corridor. It was originally in my handbag which was placed on the kitchen table. Puzzled, I went into the kitchen to discover that the door of the toilet was closed without anyone inside. One of Joshua's handphone was actually on the kitchen floor and Joash's ball was in his highchair. I entered the living room to see my snoring husband on the sofa and to my horror, I found Joash sleeping on the floor of his bedroom with Joshua's other handphone in his hands!

Apparently, Joshua was too tired and fell asleep on the sofa. Joash, with no one to supervise him, had a field day in the kitchen which was forbidden to him. He has always been eyeing our handphones but so far, we refuse to let him play with them and so this was such a golden opportunity for him to get his naughty hands on them. But then, the silly boy somehow fell asleep on the floor with evidence plainly in sight!!!


Thank God he didn't seemed to have played with anything dangerous such as detergent, medication or breakable things since our kitchen is not child-proofed. There was just never the need to do so as Joash has been trained since a few months old never to go into the kitchen and I don't remember him ever been unsupervised before.

I'm not sure whether I should find this incident hilarious or down-right harrowing...
