Cookie Thief

I caught a cookie thief!  She thought she was being sneaky.  But I'm sneakier!  Hee hee.  What happened?  Well, let me tell you. 

I was doing the dishes when I noticed a pink blur out of the corner of my eye.  It disappeared into the walk-in pantry.  Hmmm, I thought.  What could that be?  I stepped out of the kitchen, pretending like I was going somewhere else.  I hid behind the sofa and waited for the perpetrator to emmerge.  A few minutes later, a certain long-haired individual wearing pink pajamas came out of the pantry. And in her hand was a package of Oreo cookies.

"Excuse me," I said.  "Where do you think you're going with those?"

When the thief heard me, she bolted.

"You're not going anywhere," I said.  "I see those Oreo cookies!"

She stopped and put the package behind her back.  "What Oreo cookies?"

"The ones you're hiding.  I can see what's behind your back."

She looked at me like I was crazy.  "You can't see what's behind my back."

"Sure I can.  It's called Mom Vision.  Now put those cookies back.  It's way too early to eat them, anyway!"

She hung her head and slowly walked back to the pantry.  "Not fair!  I'm going to hide these where you don't know where they are, and I'm going to eat them whenever I want."

Ha.  That's what you think, kid!
