I have just discovered this in my eight-year-old daughter’s room. You can tell that her mother, who I call The Reaper, works in the funeral business, can’t you?
I am tempted to look inside to see just what exactly she considers precious enough to be stored away, but I fear that she has set a trap.

When I was Millie’s age, I thought of booby trapping my diary. My older brother used to sneak and read it. I’m almost certain my parents read it.

If you had rigged up your diary to explode you’d have had no family left!

I’d still have a younger brother who would have testified against me. 🙂 Believe me, I thought of all sorts of traps. My older brother, however, was pretty devious. He’s the one who taught me most of what I know about booby traps.
