Pop quiz
When you realize way too close to sunset that you have again forgotten to purchase Shabbat candles, how do you share this news with your far-more-devout-than-anticipated 4 year old?
A) THE "INNOCUOUS DECEPTION" APPROACH: Remember last week when our Shabbat candles looked suspiciously like purple votives? Well, today I got us green ones! Yes, of course I'm sure they're kosher.
B) THE "DISTRACTION" APPROACH: Let's do a really cool art project tonight and create our own Shabbat candles. (Pause to wait for "but I want to light REAL candles" wailing to begin) Here... have as much glitter glue as you want.
C) THE "OUT AND OUT LIE" APPROACH: Shabbat? What do you mean, it's time for Shabbat? Today is Wednesday.
Answer as soon as I figure out which way I'm going to go here...

Hmmm... knowing how perceptive Julia is, I don't think that C would work. It's a toss-up between A and B. I'm leaning towards A on this one though ;) Hope that it worked out okay!
You are hilarious! Would love to know how it went. I suspect the glitter glue did the trick?
