Kids and Spoons
Kiddo: Sticks hand in yogurt, pulls out blueberry, eats it. His expression turns to one of great distress as he holds out yogurty fingers, "Wipe it off? Wipe it off!"
Me: "Wipe my fingers, please?"
Kiddo: "Wipe fingers pleeeease?!"
Me: Wipes fingers. Hands Kiddo a spoon (the colour of his choosing, naturally), "Use the spoon and your fingers won't get sticky."
Kiddo: Picks up spoon, takes one successful bite of yogurt...drops spoon, reaches hand into yogurt, grabs blueberry..."Wipe it off. Wipe it off!!"
Me: Deep breath...
