Food for Thought

We were discussing the dietary habits of various species the other day (as we are wont to do) and Owen made the following observations:

  1. "Horses eat grass and hay."
  2. "Doggies eat goldfish and sticks*."
  3. "Owen eats watermelon."
  4. "Daddy eats food."
  5. "Mommy eats candy."
Yeah, he might be a little too perceptive.

* This is actually true. A dog absconded with Owen's goldfish crackers at the park on the way home one night and then later that same week, Garcon ripped a stick out of Owen's hand, hence doggies eat goldfish and sticks. He's probably scarred for life but on the upside, it's looking less likely that we'll have to get him a puppy.

That is absolutely hilarious! Your days of hiding anything from your child are numbered...

It's nice to know that Owen's mommy likes candy as much as Mia's mommy! :)

Have you told him that Grandma eats candy (especially dark chocolate)?

I'm not sure that there will be much watermelon for Thanksgiving, but I am sure that there will be candy!
