Myki came home today with a blue and green sugar cookies; a preschool homage to Earth Day! He was super excited. After dinner, his Dad tells him "we will share the Earth Day cookie like we share the Earth." Myki is surprisingly agreeable to the idea.
Have you ever seen Finding Nemo?
You know how Darla shakes the plastic bag with Nemo as hard as she possibly can? That's pretty much how Myki treated his Earth Day cookie.
So the time comes to eat it and he says, "Daddy you eat the big piece and I will eat the other big piece and Mami, you will eat the little piece of a piece."
"The crumbs. Do you mean Mami should eat the crumbs? Is that all Mami is worth, the crumbs?"
"Umm, yea."
"So, do you think that's all Mami is worth?"
"Yes"
While all this is occurring, Myki insists on sitting on my lap, snuggling up on me while I shower him in kisses. Hopefully, the old adage is true, actions speak louder than words?!
