How do they lose things so easily?

my daughters loose everything then expect me to find it for them, at least 3 mornings out of the week one of them cant find there school shoes when they are supposed to have put them in the shoe box when they took them off and swear blind that they put them there, things in my house must grow legs and walk off on there own. i always find that things turn up in places you wouldnt dream of looking, i found my daughters shoes on the book case this morning

Yes, i have two daughters and the elder one goes to school. And everyday she will come home leaving her things behind in the school. At home too, i never find her pencils, eraser and her clothes at the proper place .A few days back she lost her wind breaker jacket in the school and i used to go everyday in the school to find it but to no avail. Finally, one fine day she brought the jacket home. So dont worry you too will find the book just like that. It will be somewhere in front of your eyes but you are not able to see it. Usually children do forget to take care of their things. When they grow up they will learn their responsibilities.

This happens in my house all the time. Once I searched for a book for two weeks and I found it between our bed and the box spring! I really cannot understand how it got there! My son, who is 2 now, has now started taking out books from the library book bag that I have and is throwing things all over the place! It really gets nasty sometimes.

I am sure all kids loose things. Last year, in my house, I had a few moments of having to hunt around aggressively to find library books which were due to be returned.:)
