A bit tied up

Attending a church meeting with three children is never easy. Attending a church meeting on a sugar filled Easter Sunday is even more challenging. Early in the meeting I felt my 4 year old daughter playing around my ankles, I ignored it because she was playing so quietly. After about 20 minutes all three were acting up to the point my husband took our 5 year old son out into the hall. As soon as he stood up to leave our 18 month old daughter began to scream. She wanted to go with him. I couldn't calm her down so I asked the 4 year to help me clean up our belongings so that we could join her dad in the hall. Well, she didn't want to leave, so she joined in with the screaming. With a red faced huff, I picked them both up and took one giant step towards the door only to find my daughter had not been playing sweetly at my feet. She had tied them together!
