Two Reasons Why You Should Never Leave Your Laptop Alone With Your Toddler

This past week we had a really amusing incident involving my husband's laptop and my son. Earlier in the day my husband and son were hanging out in my son's room. I'm pretty sure that the Little Mister was playing with his toys while my husband sat on his laptop. Anyways, we had dinner and the Hubs left his laptop in the Little Mister's room.

Later that night, we had the Little Mister play in his room while the rest of the household relaxed. He was happy, we were happy, everything was happy. Just then my husband looked down the hall, into my son's room and saw him playing on the laptop. He immediately jumped up yelling "NOOOOOOO." It was in slow motion in his mind I'm sure. I think when he got there he didn't think that the Little Mister had done much, he was wrong.

He brings the laptop back like it's a wounded animal that's on the verge of death. I asked him what the Little Mister did and he said, "I don't know, but it's in Russian." Then a few minutes later he said, "He changed the password and now I can't log on to my computer. (These are two reasons to never leave your laptop alone with a toddler). I, of course, was supportive which was evident by my hysterical laughter. Hubs kept saying, "it's not funny." And I would reply, "Actually, it's pretty funny."

I had visions of that Baby Geniuses movie and was wondering what password Little Mister could have put in. I'd like to say for the record, no one would ever be able to figure it out (not that I know what the password is). He likes to put full hands on the laptop and hit it and he also likes to do one letter over and over again. It's entirely likely that he just pushed the J a hundred times and that's the password. Or he could go crazy and it's some genius word from a baby who can't even have a conversation.

Then to top it off, setting the language to Russian... Maybe my son really is a genius! Maybe he doesn't speak English well but his Russian is FLUENT!

So many possibilities!

If you're wanting your laptop to stay as is, keep it away from the little people! :)
