A Mess Follow Up!

Do children sometimes do something simular  to something  their parents did  in their younger days?

When I was busy working, my boys decided to make a quick sandwich, requiring , ‘mustard’. The ‘mustard’ jar had a three inch wide lid and maybe three inch height, in their haste, putting  the jar in the refrigerator,  the lid not on tight, the  ‘mustard’ hit the floor,  luckily a new throw rug  caught most of the  ‘mustard’.  What to do? My sons gathered up the rug with most of the  ‘mustard’, and put it in the dirty clothes hamper. A week later  when I was doing the wash and found this hidden “MESS”. Naturally, no one knew what happened?

When I was curious about my Mother’s nail polish, and she was busy one day, I took the nail polish, sitting on the floor,  set the opened bottle on my skirt, moved and the bottle turned over and all over my dress. I changed clothes, and made  a ball of the soiled dress and hid it at the bottom of the dirty clothes hamper. I never saw that dress again!
