Bella just called home from school because she thought she forgot her lunch. While I was on the phone with her, I checked the fridge and counter. It wasn't there.
I then asked her how hard she looked for that lunch and she responed that she just checked for it once. I asked her what she was going to do to solve her problem. She thought she should go look in her bag a bit harder.
What would you say if I were to tell you that just as I was about to hang up the phone with Bella, I spied her lunch sitting by the door and opted to say nothing to let her do a good double check and come up with a solution?
