You know, I know the things I have to hide in this house but I NEVER thought I had to hide my VITAMINS too! Although they are gummy vitamins I still never thought I had to hide them from the too younger difficult children who, by age, really are too old to be doing this ****!
I have gummy vitamin D and calcium (one gummy with both in) because I am severely deficient in D and my calcium levels have never been good so not only has the doctor prescribed me D in prescription form (these I have with all my other pills) but I also picked up some gummy ones for supplemental because they were on the mark down shelf and it was a really good deal. I had just transferred 1 bottle into the second bottle because it was more efficient to have just one bottle half full (even though it was just opened) then 2 bottles laying around.
Well, went to take them tonight and what do I find, it's gone!!! Immediately I asked both of them because I knew where it was and I knew instinctively what had happened. Both of them boldfaced stood there and lied to me that they didn't do it over and over, telling me I wasn't looking for them. Finally little dude begins helping but also says his sister did it (I had already strongly suspected her as she is my theif of all things in this house, particularly food related and gummy vitamins are like gummy candy I suppose).
I just can't believe that neither of them took the time to stop and read the label on it that clearly stated that they were "gummy vitamins"! They are tooo old for this ****. Between them they ate almost 120 gummies. I checked because the next thing I did was freak about what would happen with a vitamin overdose. Thankfully they will be alright and neither had displayed any of the signs or symptoms of it all day and they ate them early this morning.
Little dude is scared now (good he ought to be!) but middle one still states she didn't do it but won't speak otherwise and giving major attitude (as she does worse when she does wrong). Suddenly quickly also wanted to go to bed. Yup, guilty as we knew. I know he most likely will not follow her lead ever again (she stole but he joined in) and next time he will rat her out.
But seriously vitamins?????
