The mystery was solved!

Here’s a bit of background. Our Suzi was never much into gnawing on things…until Sammi came into the picture nine or ten months later. Now, we’ve figuratively speaking, bought stock in Nylabone! What one has…the other wants. Or, at least that’s the way it often seems.

When hubby and/or I leave the house, we’ve learned that it’s best to restrict the girls to lounging in the kitchen and my office area. We’ve found that, when we’re away, they pass the time…reading? We have a magazine container on the floor by the couch. Once they discovered that Consumer Reports was such a great magazine, they dove into it! It was obvious that one of them had flipped through its pages leaving all of the top corners looking, dare I say…gnawed? Ah, yes. These girls love to read! Anyway…

Upon getting home from, I’m sure, one of my adventures, I noticed something unrecognizable on the carpet in my office. For the life of me, I couldn’t figure out what it was! It was at that time that I uttered the, “What-in-the-heck was THIS!?” As I padded through the house a bit later in the day, another white object caught my eye. Though it was in a totally different room, I made the connection.

I couldn’t help but chuckle when it dawned on me that, in a sense, I’d managed to share my Chap Stick with the girls!
