"Children are basically human versions of a 'find my phone' app - as annoying as it maybe, if kids are making a noise, you then at least know where they are, it's when they're silent that you need to worry as it usually results in a mess I'll get blamed for, a lot of scrubbing & a dubious home insurance claim. This evening I walked in on the aftermath of 'operation sunblock' - a covert operation to liberate all the suncream from my confines of my bedside drawer. The results - 2 well moisturised guilty looking girls who smelt like holiday & won't be getting a tan anytime soon & a floor more slippery that an overexcited eel who'd just won a jelly wrestling competition. Lessons to learn: 1). if its silent, something bad is happening & 2). I will always be the blame even if when I'm nowhere near the scene of the crime. "
