Julia the firebug

Julia tried to burn the bathroom down Saturday. It was an “accident". She “accidentally” got toilet paper into a candle. The candle was nowhere near the toilet/ the toilet paper roll, and in fact one would have to climb on top of the sink to "accidentally" reach the candle. Surprisingly, the toilet paper started on fire when it made contact with the candle, and Julia (apparently unsure of what to do) decided to drop the burning toilet paper into the garbage can (not the toilet filled with fire-killing water 3 inches away). She opened the door and exclaimed, "Mom, there's a fire!" Mom doused it with water and put it outside. The trash can, sadly, did not make it. But, the bathroom is intact. Julia has promised there will be no more "accidents."
