The Golden Age

Wikipedia defines the Golden Age as a period of primordial peace, harmony, stability and prosperity.  I define the Golden Age as a period in a child's life when their younger sibling is able to walk but unable to talk.  During this very brief period (typically when the younger child is between the ages of 1 and 2)  the older child is able blame their sibling for anything and everything without rebuttal.  

Who painted our walls with markers?  Ivy did it!  Who spilled urine all over the bathroom floor (don't ask)? Ivy did it! Who broke the Christmas ornaments? Ivy did it! You get the point.

No one will ever know the real answer to these questions but I do know that Violet is enjoying her Golden Age.
