First of all, a couple of days ago, I found Safia in my bathroom with several feet of unwound dental floss at her feet. Then, tonight during family home evening I noticed that Safia had disappeared. I sent Angelique to go find her. Safia had climbed up into the cupboard, gotten the honey bear, went into her room and was drizzling it on the night stand, a DVD case, on a stuffed animal, and on a shirt when Angelique found her. Just now while I was typing this, right behind my back, she got a bag of ponytail holders, bit a hole in it, and was shaking the ponytail holders onto my bedroom floor as fast as she could until I stopped her. This child is an out-of-control messmaker. Which leads me into my next paragraph.
This afternoon, I notice she had disappeared while I was cleaning the kitchen. She was in her bedroom with the water sprayer. She had soaked Beachene's head and clothes and was squirting down the mirror. I startled her by saying firmly, "Safia, what are you doing?" She proceeded to explain to me that there was a ghost in her room. Then she took a step back and said again that there was a ghost in her room. So I asked her where the ghost was now and she pointed to her bed and said, "Right there on my bed." So I asked her if the the ghost was a boy or a girl, and she said that it was a girl. So I told her that the ghost is a spirit and that she didn't need to be afraid. She could talk to her and say hi to her. Then, after I cleaned up the mirror, I left the bedroom and went back to the kitchen. Safia then came running down the hall to the kitchen yelling, "There is a ghost in my room!" I went back to her room with her. She told me that the ghost was on the vanity where the mirror is again. So I just told her that the ghost wouldn't hurt her and that it was just a nice spirit. So, that was the end of that.
