Stealing Easter Eggs

When Kayleigh was about 2 1/2 years old we were down at Woolworths at Calwell getting the fortnightly shop. It was Easter time and obviously we were not paying enough attention to what Kayleigh was doing. We knew the person at the check out and we were having a good old chat, glancing down every now and again to just check Kayleigh was still with us (she wasn't much of a wanderer as a toddler). We paid for the groceries and walked out the back way to the car and it was then we noticed that Kayleighs face was covered in chocolate and her hands were also completely messy. We stopped and told Kayleigh to hold out her hands and nestled in one was the remains of a Cadbury Creme egg - about 1/3 of it. Kayleigh looked extremely guilty and Terence smacked her on the hand and we both told her off and explained that mum and dad had to pay for things with money before we could eat them. Kayleigh cried, but she continued to lick her fingers (we had taken the rest of the egg off her and thrown it away). She never stole another easter egg again, and several times she made sure her younger brothers and sisters weren't tempted either. Kayleigh also never had another Cadbury Creme egg again :)
