Sneaky!

Lately, Ellie has started telling me to "stay there" before she goes off to do something naughty. This morning, we were sitting at her little table in the kitchen when she got up, said "Stay there, Mommy. Stay there." and went around the corner and started playing in Gracie's water dish. I had a hard time not laughing as I dragged her out of the bowl and reminded her that we don't play in Gracie's water. So should I be worried that at 2 years old, she's capable of thinking "hhm...I really want to take this xylophone mallet and splash it in Gracie's water but Mom will never go for it. I need to distract her so I can get a head start. She's always saying 'stay there, Ellie. Stay there' when we're in a busy parking lot or something. I'll try that."
