Now they listen?

Now they listen???  My kids have this annoying habit of always throwing the throw pillows off the couch.  OK, now that I write it all out, maybe I understand it now - they are called throw pillows after all.  We barely use our downstairs family room in the winter but I am constantly finding the pillows on the floor.  I don't know why they find the need to walk through the room and toss the pillows.  They know that this is a hot button for me - after all, I am constantly screaming about it.

When I bought the new living furniture the other day, I went against my better judgement and bought some throw pillows for the couches. After picking them up for the umpteenth time, I called a family meeting and told the kids:

The throw pillows belong on the floor, along with the throws.  If I find them on the couch, someone will be punished."  How could that go wrong since they never listen to me.

But, they choose this day to finally listen to me
