Makeup and mulah

Every child has that one story that their parents love to tell to embarass them, and my sister and I are no exception. When my sister and I were younger (about 3 and 5) my parents and grandparents brought us with them to numerous speeches and benifits to show us off to their friends and buisness parnters being the adorable little girls that we were. But they didn't realize that behind our innocent facade we had a hidden motive, make-up and money. My sister and I were a duo and inseperable during out young age. We learned at a young age that if we work together we could do whatever we wished. Whenever we would go to these speeches with my mother she had a tendency of getting distracted and not paying quite as much attention to us as was necessary, so we took full advantage of this independence. My sister and I would walk around to all the women sitting at the tables and charm them with our cute little pig-tales and bright eyes and while my sister was distracting them and rubbing their stockings to get them to turn the other way, I would sneak in to their purses and take their make-up and money. We were never caught by the women, but when we left their presence we brought the make-up and money back over to my mother. Of course she did not condone this behavior and attempted to return the stolen goods to their rightful owner, however sometimes it was too difficult to find them. Thankfully, my sister and I grew out of this manipulative, fugitive behavior and let our angels on our shoulder's take over, but our parents will never let us live it down.
