Things to Remember
At the (rained-out) church fair last night, Anthony said his tummy was "GROWLING". This usually means one of two things:
a. I just saw something I really want, and so I'm going to say I'm hungry.
b. I'm hungry.
Since we had eaten dinner and he had had gummies only an hour before, I was betting we weren't talking about Option B.
This is the conversation that ensued:
Anthony: My tummy is GROWLING
Me (acting appropriately shocked): Oh, no! What could we possibly do to make this better?
Anthony: Maybe I should have something to eat.
Me: And what would you like?
Anthony: What do they have here?
Me: Broccoli, spinach, salad.
Anthony: No, no, no.
Me: Boiled crawfish? Potatoes and corn?
Anthony: No. No.
Me: I wonder if there is anything else to eat here.
Anthony: I think they have cookies and cupcakes, Mommy.
Me: They do? REALLY? I think we should go find out.
And he got a rice crispie treat with MnMs in it. He sure fooled me! :)

I was laying in bed with Anthony last night and he was just about asleep. He opened his eyes and said, "Mommy, I love my life," gave a big sigh and closed his eyes again. Then, "That's all. You can tell Daddy to come lay with me now."
