The Worst Night So Far

I really don't know where to start. Last night we babysat our neighbor's kids, as the final part of our deal with them for the computer chair. Nothing too terrible happened while we were babysitting, but when the neighbors came back, it all happened. They stayed at our house for awhile talking, and Anders and Eliza went upstairs to play. They came downstairs and few minutes later and Anders said, "I got a haircut!" Yes, it happened. They found scissors and cut the front part of his hair off. He actually has a bald spot. We didn't react much, figuring we would just cut his hair and that would be that, and we would hide all scissors forever. However, a few more minutes passed, and Nils went upstairs to make sure they weren't doing anything naughty. That's when he found it. The flood. The two little monsters had been filling up a toy construction hat with water and dumping it all over the bathroom floor, Anders' bedroom floor, as well as his bed. It took about 15 towels to sop it all up. His mattress is still drying out. I think we could have beat them both.
