[The room-sharing is going very well, by the way.]

So this morning C didn’t want to get dressed—cozy bed and all that—so I suggested she get dressed under the covers. I told her about getting dressed in my sleeping bag while camping and how the sleeping bag kept me warm in the chilly tent. She thought that was pretty interesting.

Then I suggested she fake out R by staying covered up, so he’ll think she hadn’t gotten dressed yet. Again she thought that was a splendid idea.

So as R was getting ready in our room I heard him talking to M:
R: What’s C doing?
M: Kose!
R: She’s putting on her clothes?
M: Yeah.

Ah well. Little sisters!

Later when R went in there C was beaming mischievously and said, “Daddy, I’m not dressed yet!” Clearly she hasn’t yet gotten the subtle art of the fakeout.
