This week’s Multitude Monday’s is going to start with a story about Patrice and climbing and showers and cinnamon rolls.
Yesterday, Patrice woke up with quite the runny nose, so she and I stayed home from church. I hate the thought of being that mom who brings their child to nursery only to make all the other kids sick, so we stayed home. I straightened up the kitchen and then decided to enjoy a leisurely shower.
Patrice is a climber, but I thought I had everything blocked off.
I was wrong.
I come out of my shower refreshed to find a little girl on a chair at the counter, finishing off two, count them two, cinnamon rolls from Ikea, a dum dum sucker she found in her sister’s Valentine’s Day candy bag, and a sleeve of saltine crackers.
She handed me what was left of the rolls and crackers, the sucker, which she had unwrapped and was eating properly, was hers!
My dum dum sucker. I opened it, I'm eating it
That was at about 11:30 am. Patrice did not eat again until 8 pm. All offers of food were turned down!
