5 second rule

Tonight, Maya was dutifully putting the silverware away for me while I unloaded the rest of the dishwasher. I heard something fall and immediately turned to make sure there was no fork sticking out of her foot. I must have had a look of alarm on my face because she quickly picked up the fallen item and responded..."That's OK mama, it hasn't been 5 seconds yet, I don't think.". That's my girl! Heehee.
