The price of quiet

Any mom with  young children knows that a few minutes of quiet to accomplish something she needs or wants to is a treasured thing.  The other day as I was straightening up the kitchen, I was enjoying the fact that my children were playing quietly somewhere else.  But I knew quiet meant they should be checked on and I found Brett in the bathtub with his clothes and shoes on and water up to his ankles (Kenna was happily watching the whole scenario).  So I stripped him down to his diaper, drained the tub, and told Kenna to make sure he didn't get in it again.  The seemed to be ok, so I ran to finish up another task - when I returned the next time - the were in the shower together in the above condition.  I know, I should have known better, but oh, to get a few things done.  Brett was not too thrilled about his condition, but Kenna was having a grand time lathering him up.  Needless to say, they both got baths and early pajamas AND I did not leave them alone for the rest of the night.  So leaving a 2-year-old under a 4-year-old's supervision is really just not a good idea.
