me: "hey are you an imp?"
Ladybug: "I imp!!"
evidence:
During dinner, Daddy pushed four bites of meat to an empty spot on her plate explaining that if she would eat this, she could have another serving of peaches. So she dutifully took one bite. I watched as he turned back to his own plate. Ladybug watched him too and seeing that he was distracted, slowly and quietly pushed the other three bites of meat back into their original pile and announced "okay daddy I done! more peaches please!"
I laid down on my bed to cuddle the baby during naptime. Soon, I heard small feet patter into my bedroom, past my bed and into the bathroom. I didn't say anything at first because Butterfly always comes to my room after a nap, uses the bathroom and then climbs into bed with me. Ten minutes passed with no Butterfly. So I got up and opened the bathroom door to check on her. Instead of Butterfly, I found my Ladybug curled up in the empty bathtub with her favorite blanket and reading a book.
The way she asks for something, waits for me to repeat it (trying to understand what she said) and then she cheers, "okay!" as if it was my idea. Her: "tangled peas?" Me: "you want to watch Tangled?" Her: "okay!"
The way she sneak down the hall with her hands over her eyes, undoubtedly thinking this means we can't see her and she will get away with it.
Or the way she climbed into the snack cabinet and ate an entire bag of craisins. Or took the soap dispenser from the bathroom and used it to wash the couch. Or the way she took every book from the bookshelf and used them to build a fort. Or the way she stole my ice cream sandwich and ran and hid under the bed where I couldn't reach her.
Mischievous little imp monster.
