Too Tempting

We all have special temptations that call to us.  Mine are chocolate covered on a shelf in the pantry.  As adults we have to quiet these feelings and learn to overcome them. (So we are told) Then try to pass this skill on to those entrusted to us. However, I've decided there are many situations that are just too tempting for children.  For example:

My bed, just after I finish making it.

A sleeping kitty

A clean window or glass door

A newly folded favorite blanket

Sprinklers

A pile of sand, no matter where it is

A roll of toilet paper

String or rope (for Bridger at least)

Grandpa's favorite cookies in the cupboard

My unattended cell ph

Ryan's open coke can

Any toy, as long as a sibling is playing with it

Flowers, even if they've been told not to pick them 

Pajamas, no matter what time of day (Ill admit, this is a temptation of mine too)

And Soap that comes out all foamy..its just too much fun!
