3.The entire family was here recently-14 in all,including six kids under the age of 5.We had a joint birthday party for two of the grandkids.
The day after everyone cleared out I noticed that the drain stopper(排水塞) was missing from downstairs bathroom sink.
The last thing you want to do is accuse your own fresh and blood of stripping hardware from your bathroom,but a drain stopper doesn't just wash itself down the drain.
So I sent out a carefully-worded e-mail saying what a wonderful time we had and asking if anyone had accidently tucked a drain stopper in a purse,pocket or suitcase.I even attached a picture of a drain stopper in case there was any doubt as to what the missing part looked like.
Our son responded that he thought his 10-month-old might have eaten it.He said he'd let us know if they found it in the next day of two.
Our youngest daughter responded that she thought she saw it in her husband's lunchbox that morning,but she could be wrong.
Our oldest daughter replied that she had suspected her sister's husband all along.He replied that he had been framed.
Our oldest daughter then checked the guilt of one of her twins with following exchange:
Mommy:"Do you know where Grandma's drain stopper is?"
Three-year-old:"Yeah,let me show you."(Heads to the bathroom.)
Mommy:"No,not ours,where is Grandma's?Did you take it?"
Three-year-old:"I think she took it."(She points at her 18-month-old baby sister)."She's a naughty kid."
Naturally,the 18-month-old defended herself by saying:"Bububbubnananabublalala!"
The next day,an email arrived from our daughter-in-law."Guess what I found in my laundry this morning?I thought the dryer was louder last night."
Our "perp" was short.He has a known history of building and disassembling,is mechanically inclined,determined and just turned 3.
It's always good to know a child's interests and talents.We have a valve(閥門(mén)) that occasionally drips under the kitchen sink.I may have him take a look at it the next time he's here.But I'll pat him down before he leaves.
