If you give a two year old....

If you are making chocolate chip cookies, your two year old will ask for a chocolate chip. You will give her one, then she'll ask for more. She'll take those chocolate chips over to the couch. She'll drop a few down between the couch cushions. Then your eight year old will sit on the couch and get melted chocolate chip all over her pants. Then you will have to spray'n wash her pants. Then you will have to clean out between the cushions of your couch. While you do this your two year old will see the chocolate chip and want another one. And chances are if you give her another one, it will end up in the couch again (no, I did not give her anymore, she just had a cookie while stuck in her seat at the counter).
True story. At least now it is 8:40 and the two year old and eight year old are in bed. As for the chocolate on the pants, I guess I'd better do laundry tomorrow.

I want a cookie, and I promise not to get chocolate on your couch.
