We've been having a lot of special meals lately and eating out frequently since Grandma has been here for two weeks. Teen Thing B has been taking some sweet leftovers to school and keeps returning home from the day bragging about how he's making his buddies jealous with his fab lunches.
The boys (B and Po) split a leftover chocolate bunny for desert this evening. It was pretty huge, but I wanted the thing out of the pantry, so I let them have at it. About halfway through his half, B succumbed to the chocolate heft and his desire to continue to impress, and declared that he would take the rest with his lunch to school tomorrow.
Po took a couple more bites of the ass-end of the bunny and asked if he could "save the feet for kindergarten so I can make all of my new friends jealous like brother."
I let him know that kindergarten doesn't start until July 30.
He pondered for a moment, then said "well, will it keep until then?"
"I don't think so." I said. "Why don't we just put it in the fridge and save it for another day? Maybe tomorrow."
His eyes lit up. "I know! Let's have a play date with (BFF) BK tomorrow! He'll be really jealous of my bunny feet!"
Aren't big brothers the best for teaching life lessons? And I should most definitely win a prize for thinking my pre-K son has the same sense of humor as the freshman.
