This is for my Sarah Beth. An account of her daily adventures and discoveries.

Sarah and I were at Annmarie's for dinner the other night.  After dinner Annmarie offered Sarah some mint chocolate chip ice cream.  Sarah was all for it.  As Annmarie handed Sarah the dish she told her not to give any to Maggie dog.  Sarah said she understood and she wouldn't feed Maggie.  I added further instruction and told her not to play with the ice cream and it was to be eaten at the table.  She started eating her ice cream, making yummy noises and everything seemed fine.  Annmarie and I let our radar down.  She was taking care of the other dogs and I had baby Alex.  I hear Annemarie say, "Sarah what are you doing?"  I look over and Sarah had dropped some ice cream onto the table and she was swirling it around with her fingers.  I do an eyeroll, sigh and state the obvious, "Sarah that's a no no."  Sarah keeps her head down, steps back from the table, you could see her thinking about what to say.  And, so she says to Annmarie, "Oh, I'm sorry Anmurray. It was an accident."  Then steps back up to the table and starts swirling the ice cream again.  Now, it's Annmarie's turn to roll her eyes, sigh/laugh and she told Sarah that she didn't belive it was an accident and she also saw her feeding Maggie ice cream.  Sarah ran out of snappy answers, gave another lame apology and I cleaned up the mess.
