Blog Post, Interrupted: A Breakfast Tale
I fired up Blogger Dashboard this morning feeling al kinds of post-y (postal? no... that's wrong), but then life happened.
Felix wanted yogurt for breakfast. Okay. He only likes lemon and vanilla yogurt, so I ask him which one.
"What kind of yogurt, sweet pea?"
"Reg-ler kind,"
"Which flavor is regular?" I ask. I am foolish sometimes, despite this not being my first time at the toddler rodeo.
"Reg-LER!" he bellows at me, as if I am am inbecile.
I choose the vanilla cup. I show it to him.
"No-OHHHHH-oooooo-OOOOOH!" he wails, tearing up and grimacing like a Carnivale mask.
"Ohhhhkay, then. Lemon," I offer tentatively.
"Lemon," he says with a sunshiney smile. He climbs into his booster seat, grabs the proffered spoon and digs in. Between bites, he says, "Can I have my bite-min?"
I pause at the cabinet, hand on the Berkley & Jensen gummy-vitamin bottle.
"Please, Mama?" he asks, still shoveling Stonyfield's lemon into his face.
I give him the vitamin, grab a yogurt to have with him, and sit down.
"Can I have a waffle wif my wohgurt?"
What blog post?
