"Daddy! Paige made a mess!"
"You said you'd watch her for me. What happened?"
"She got my old glass of water and she spilled it everywhere!"
Yes Daddy. You see? She did exactly what you asked her to do: she watched Paige.
Now here's where it gets tricky... you say "Aubree, can you watch Paige for me for a few minutes and (here's the important part) make sure she doesn't get into anything she's not supposed to." It works wonders. Hehehehe.
