Natalie was digging through the snack drawer.


I said, "Natalie, don't get a snack now. I am fixing dinner." She goes out the back door to play.


I continue on with all the many things that make up an evening at our house. I go outside to give the rabbit her food and water and notice that Natalie has disappeared.


I come inside to find her and there she is, eating a snack.


"Natalie," I said, "I told you don't get a snack Why did you get a snack?"


"Well," she says, "You weren't in here to stop me."
