If You Give Your Two-year-old a Piece of Toast

If you decide to make yourself a piece of toast, your two-year-old will want one too. And if you give him a piece of toast he will ask you to put peanut butter on it. And if you put peanut butter on it he will want you to cut it into four triangles. When you sit down to eat your toast and drink your coffee he will realize he is thirsty. He will ask you for some of your coffee and juice. You will get him his own cup of juice and tell him your coffee is still too hot (whether or not it is bc you really don't want to share a single drop). He will nibble the toast up to the very edge of the apparently inedible crust getting peanut butter all over his chubby cheeks. You will sit down to finally drink your coffee and he will announce that he is all done. He will want you to get him a napkin. You will need to wipe his face for him. Then your five-year-old will decide he is hungry as well. After you get your middle child something to eat you will sit down again to enjoy your breakfast. Your two-year-old then climbs into your lap. He spots your toast and announces that he is still hungry. And chances are if he eats your peanut butter toast, he will want your coffee to go with it. It is way-too-cold to enjoy now anyways and so you let him.
