So there we were, Aiden was happily playing with his older brothers' Lego city. They must have used every single piece in the two boxes to make it. It was a beautiful sight. Several of the older children were in the next room watching TV. I wandered off downstairs for a minute. If he got bored he would go bug the other kids or I would hear him if he went out the back door.
It wasn't long before one of the other kids brought him to me. They were saying"You are in a whole lot of trouble Aiden! Mom, Aiden was out front, standing this far from the recycling bin watching them pick up the garbage."
Remembering yesterday's antics, I'm very glad he wasn't under the truck. How could he have gotten past 4 other children unnoticed? He would have walked directly in front of them on his way out.
He was still smiling.
