What we see in this picture is a boy dangerously balancing on a stool that’s tipping as he reaches up to grab a cookie from a jar on a high shelf.
He already has a cookie in one hand, and the lid of the jar is falling off, which suggests that he’s been sneaking them.
The stool doesn’t look stable at all, and it’s bound to fall if he keeps going.
Next to him, there’s a little girl, standing with her hand stretched out, clearly waiting for a cookie too.
She’s probably counting on him to share.
The funny part is that in the background, their mother is completely focused on washing and drying dishes.
She’s so absorbed in her task that she hasn’t noticed the kitchen sink overflowing with water.
The water has spilled all over the floor, and it seems like she’s totally unaware of the mess that’s happening behind her.
It’s a classic case of being so distracted by one thing that you miss something else important.
