Popcorn makes an appearance again today. It was the toddler's afternoon snack. That's not much of a story. The story is in how it became the snack.
I know she's not doing it on purpose - or at least I hope not - but Michaela has a way of asking a question so that, when you clarify what she means, her idea becomes your idea.
Here's how it goes:
Michaela: I can have popcorn for a snack? (In two-year old speak, so it's not totally clear, though she does speak VERY clearly.)
Mommy: You want popcorn for snack?
Michaela: OK!
And then you find yourself popping the world's smallest batch of popcorn in your Whirly Pop because you're trying to cut back on your own snacks, and the final result is our picture.
She is seriously a turd.
B has been dying for one of those pillow pets for ages now! Every time she sees them at Walmart she begs us for one. M looks so cozy, I may just have to give in!
