Amazing Feats for Little Feets

Lesson: Never underestimate the honesty or agility of either of your children!

Last night, the family was having supper and as typically happens, Henry excused himself from the table to go play in the playroom. Hope soon followed, as she always likes to keep a close eye on her big brother. Shannon and I took advantage of a little mom time telling work stories and gossiping a bit. Here is the dialogue that next transpired:

Henry, calling from the playroom: "Mom, Hope is standing up!" (a regular occasion these days!)
Diana: "That's great!"
Henry: "Hope is standing up, come see!"
Diana: "No, Hen, Momma Shannon and I are finishing our dinner."
Henry: "But come see, Di! Hope is standing!"
Diana: "Hen, when we finish our conversation, we will come."
Henry: "Come now!"
Diana: "OK, Hen, but after I see her, I am coming back to finish my dinner."

And here is where we found Hope...indeed, STANDING ON THE PIANO!!!
