Aw, man, I wish I’d had a video camera. Two three-year-olds went missing for some hours, then showed back up at home, stark nekkid, holding a table lamp. There were fears they might have been molested, until the truth came out:
But a call from a neighbor to report a suspected burglary revealed the boys had broken into a nearby house and gone berserk, emptying out drawers, bouncing on beds, scribbling on walls and gobbling up orange-flavored vitamin pills.
The twins discarded their clothes after getting covered in shampoo and toothpaste after a rampage through the bathroom, squeezing out bottles and tubes.
They grabbed a bedside light and took it away with them thinking it would help them find their way home in the dark.
I think most parents reading this will either cringe, guffaw, or both.
Hmmm. Maybe making the moral of “Goldilocks and the Three Bears” be that you shouldn’t go poking around in strange houses wasn’t such a bad idea.

Was one of them named Calvin? Or Dennis?
