Benisms

from the mom

(About an hour after breakfast):
B:I want an egg.
Mom: You can have an egg for lunch.
B: I want an egg for breakfast.

I want to spank flies. (He shows signs of believing in corporal punishment.)

B: I want chicken and rice.
Mom: Tonight we're having pasta.
B: I want chicken and rice.
Mom: This isn't a restaurant buddy-boy.

Ha! We have the same misperception in our household, too: "You do not start a request with 'I want...' or 'More...' Mama is not a waitress."

So fun that Ben is expressing himself now! I can't wait to see what his view of life has been all this time.
