Grandchildren and drum sets are G-d's way of letting you "get even" with your children!

Just had the 20 month old for 3 days. She learned to feed the cat but it was really funny when she got down flat on the floor and imitated the cat. Mom's going to find out a few other things in the next few days. I hope Mom understands that "play pot" means take all the pots and pans down and play "drum" with chopsticks!
I was thinking more along the lines of...
"Johnny, why don't you really surprise Daddy and spread a couple tablespoons of powdered sugar on the bed sheets?"
"Johnny, what do you suppose would happen if you put a thin bead of Krazy Glue on Daddy's toilet seat?"
"Johnny, wouldn't it be fun, if when Daddy throws out burned out lightbulbs, you got them out of the trash and hid them for a couple of days and then screwed them back into the lamp he took them out of."
But then, I've had lots of practice at this sort of thing!
