So I'm sitting on the couch trying to work (wireless + laptops = good) while my wife takes my oldest and youngest kids to the doctor because they are sick. My oldest son, Dallen, is sitting on the other couch. I'm kinda hungry, so I pull out some chocolate truffles to snack on. His eyes pop open, "Daddy, I want chocolate," he says.
I tell him, "No, you have to eat your cereal first." (He chose to have Cheerio's for lunch, but didn't finish the bowl.)
"But Daddy," he says, "my tummy hurts and candy makes it feel better!"
:shock2:
Ah, the logic of kids :) Who could argue with an argument like that? (Well, me actually, I made him take two more bites of cereal before I gave him a piece of chocolate. His next (and favorite) question was "Two?" while holding up two fingers in a "V". I'm a mean dad, though, he only got one :) )
