Peeps!

P was in charge of FHE treat and was finally giving the children the box of peeps.  They stood on the bench and eagerly took the treat.  B and L didn't know what they were and it took a while for them to eat them.

Here they are still nibbling long after the big kids have gulped theirs down.

Apparently B liked his a lot.  He savored it a long time.  P only gave them each one and left the other 6 in the package on the counter.  That night we talked about how unusual and good it was that the children don't sneak the candy or steal the money out of the bowl on top of the fridge.

In the morning 1 peep was gone and nobody would admit it was them that took it.  We don't care about the peep but we do care about them lying.  So P put all 4 big kids in the front room and said they couldn't come out until they figured out who took it.  After about 10 minutes M told B that he could whisper to her and mom and dad if he did it.  I wasn't sure if M had told him to admit to it or if she had helped him find a way to come clean with some dignity.  It seems it was the latter.  P let the children out and gave everyone but B a peep.  B had his earlier and was ok with that.
