Kate is seated with her little drawing/writing tablet that erases. She begins aloud:
Kate: This is going to awkward because she's standing right here. I wanted to watch a movie and she wouldn't let me. I wanted to play a game and she wouldn't let me.
Me: What? I tried to get you to play Memory with Sarah and me!
Kate: [ignoring me] I wanted to go outside and she wouldn't let me.
Me: I told you to go outside! It's beautiful out! Maybe you should go outside right now.
Kate: [still ignoring me, continues writing] I wanted to put a puzzle together and she wouldn't let me.
Me: You're outta line, Drueke.
Kate: I wanted something to eat and she wouldn't feed -
Me: WHAT? Who made you that waffle with Nutella?!? Who got you a glass of milk?
Kate: [Looks at me impassively, blinks, falls silent but continues writing].

Later that same morning.
I am in the bathroom brushing my teeth when I hear a yell from the kitchen.
Sarah: Sorry mommy!
I stop brushing and stand as still as a deer in headlights. Then I spit out the toothpaste.
Me: Sorry for what?
Sarah: Sorry I had an accident on Kate's book bag.
**********************************************************************************
Aftermath. Kate is still writing on her tablet. She walks her falsified report over to me.
Kate: See mommy? I drew a heart. It says I love you. Even though you won't let me watch a movie.

sounds like it's time for the theater w/ all that drama!!! lol....at least she's expressing her thoughts? :)
Expressing her thoughts was never something with which Kate had trouble, that's for sure.
Am I to understand that Sarah peed on Kate's backpack? Awesome.
WV: gnompal - I like gnomes.
Yes, Sarah peed on Kate's backpack. This, I suspect, was no "accident".
