So, Lucas often seems to be one step ahead of us, and though we watch him as closely as possible, he is one sneaky little guy. Yesterday he disappeared, which is usually a sign that he's up to something. Instead of finding him, I found our bedroom door shut and LOCKED. What was even more concerning was that I couldn't get him to respond when I called his name. Normally if he shuts a door and cannot open it, he calls for me until I come help him. This particular door is not one I've ever had to open from the outside when locked and it took me a while {like about 6-7 VERY LONG minutes} to find something that would open it. All the while Emma was at the door listening for him.
FINALLY I opened the door and found Lucas just standing by my bed. He had unplugged a nightlight and fan from their outlets, and was holding a blue marker. Otherwise, the room (and Lucas) seemed fine. It took a few minutes for me to realize what he had been doing all that time alone, and why he was so quiet.
Permanent marker does not easily come off of pudgy little boy skin...
