Process of Elimination

This afternoon Isaac and Jeremiah were having a tough time getting along. I was having a tough time figuring out what to do about it. They were pouncing and running and putting their heads in a box. And then crying and fussing and whining. But it was tricky to know what to do because neither of them were really being mean or bad or disobedient. Just frustrating. It finally came to me that since it wasn't Jeremiah stirring up all kinds of trouble, it must be Isaac. I knew that the process of elimination was going to come in handy some day!
