A Play in One Scene

Setting: Two children, ages 4 and 9, sit on the carpet in the office peacefully playing together with small cars and a car ramp. The mother sits nearby doing very important work indeed on her computer. Suddenly, the younger child takes the smallest of cars from her brother's grasp.

Older Child: (Looking at the mom, expecting her to take some action) Basia! Give that car back to me!!!

Younger Child: (Also looking at the mom, fully expecting vindication) But, Mo-om! I STOLE it!

Curtain.

I'm guessing that particular commandment has not yet been covered in Sunday School.
