The Watcher

The other day I asked Kaitlyn to "watch" her brother and keep him out of trouble for a few minutes while they were watching TV and I went upstairs... knowing that a few minutes was more than enough time for Evan to get into all kinds of trouble. But she agreed and I'm gone about a minute when the phone pagers go off because he is obviously pushing buttons. When I get back downstairs to shut them off, Evan has climbed up on the couch and then on the end table where he is still playing with the phone. Kaitlyn is intently focused on the TV, apparently oblivious to the overwhelming sound of phones buzzing. After I got it stopped I asked Kaitlyn what happened. Her response was, "Well, I watched him climb up there and do that."
