Bookmark thief.
I have been reading this book forever it seems. And I’ve been using a folded in half envelope as my bookmark. Then I somehow misplaced the envelope and switched to my standard bookmark, a bobby pin. Then I went on a trip. At the airport I bought some Skittles. It was the first of many indulgences of last weekend. So on the plane I switched from the bobby pin bookmark (needed it for my hair) and started marking my spot with the Skittles wrapper.
Charlotte was more than confused with this. Probably mostly that a mom can go buy candy by herself somehow and eat it without sharing 68% of it with her children.
So last night I find my book on the table.
First I’m mad because I think someone has lost my spot and I’m already annoyed with how much time this book has taken of my life anyway, I don’t want to waste precious moments looking for my place.
Then I open the book.
Charlotte has somehow located my folded in half envelope and has replaced the Skittles wrapper. And homeostasis has been restored.

happy you shared your blog on facebook! i've spent a good part of my morning laughing through your posts.
Oh my gosh, that is hilarious!
P.S. the word verification is "grilly." WTH?
Ha ha! Awesome. Now I have to go look up homeostasis.
Who knew a 4 year old could restore homeostasis?? Nice work Charlotte! ( :
