The sequence of events:
Friday a.m.
Me: What do you want for your snack?
Child: A banana.
Me: *insert banana into backpack*
Friday p.m.
Papers sorted from backpack. Did not search for rogue banana, because why would I?
Saturday
backpack lurked by door
Sunday
backpack lurked by door
Monday a.m.
Me: What do you want for your snack?
Child: Cheddar bunnies.
Me: *insert package of Annie’s Cheddar bunnies into backpack*
Monday p.m.
Child: *sob sob* There was a banana at the bottom of my backpack and it mooshed all over everything!
Me:…The banana you asked for? On Friday?
In conclusion: Bananas are dangerous. Or possibly, when your child makes a healthy snack choice, it’s just a way of getting out the house where she can try to score Cheetohs.
