The mystery of the Sippy cup

Who said being a mother is boring? After all I spend at least an hour a day playing detective. Where did the remote go? Oh, in the towel drawer…of course! Where is mommy’s shoe? In the laundry basket…duh!! Now I have met my match, I have spent untold time in the last 5 days searching for the missing Sippy cup. It is the mystery of the century. I’ve looked all the usual places, the towel drawer in the kitchen, the stove drawer, the toy basket, the laundry basket (in all rooms), under mommy’s bed (which I did find three plastic food items that had been missing from the grocery cart), behind the couch, under the couch, by the DVD player, behind the DVD player, and many other places. Now I find that I am questioning myself, did we really have 6 cups? Maybe it was only 5? What color is the missing cup? I was sure we only had two green, but maybe it was 3? I feel like I am losing my mind. So the Sippy cup mystery continues, I just pray it didn’t have milk in it. I think it was only juice, I hope it was only juice. Only time will tell, but this is the longest time the Sippy cup mystery had eluded me. You would think a 2 year old confined to crawling would have limited options to hide things, but obviously I have underestimated Luke’s ability to out-think his momma.
