Crannie has been calling little Beebster a "bandit" for months now because she loves to run off with stuff and then laughs about it. Maddie always laughs about her sissy, the bandit, and miss Faith earned the recognition of being a true bandit today.
We took the little women to WalMart this afternoon to browse the crafts section again. Maddie's been insistent lately that she is going to be the teacher who teaches Faith all sorts of new words. She has gotten Faith to say "beads" ("beeeees"), "I like beads," "choo choo" ("shoe shoe") and I have had to get her to stay away from harder words like "flashlight" and "I love you, Maddie" that she tries to teach her little Flop.
Anyway, Faith and Maddie were racing towards the crafts section hand-in-hand with Faith yelling, "I like beeeees!" (I like beads). They were showing Dan the sets that they want for Christmas, and of course Faith somehow manages to drop this big case of beads on the ground. It proceeds to break open and hundreds upon hundred of beads fall out onto the floor. We quickly filtered away from the crafts section to the Christmas section, and hung our heads hoping nobody saw what had happened.
A few moments later, I notice that Beebster continues to say "I like beeees" at the top of her lungs and all with this sly little grin on her face. I asked her if she thought it was funny that she had dropped all of those beads back there, and she goes "bea-d-s, bea-d-s, bea-d-s!" and points to her sweatshirt pockets. I find, low and behold, three little beads in her pocket that she apparently swiped while we were trying to make a quick getaway. Dan, Maddie, and I all could not stop laughing!
She is our precious little bandit;)
