“#2 son! Why is your shoe here on the floor?”
“Because I was spying on you.”
“But why is one shoe on the floor and not with your other shoe in the shoe basket?”
Exasperated sigh. “Because I was SPYING on you when you were in the kitchen.”

“Well……” he stalled, thinking for a moment. “Didja see me?”
“No.”
“Then it worked. Didn’t it?”

Tempted to call my son up, read this to him and ask him what your son was thinking – but I’m afraid he’d tell me.
