She normally can't quite finish it and since I'm too dumb to look at what's left in her bowl too busy and tired with everyday life, I haven't been paying attention to what she has left.
Until last week.
Emily: "Morgan, you didn't finish your oatmeal. You hardly touched it."
Morgan: "I don't like the white part."
Emily: "The white part? The white part is the oatmeal. You only ate the topping?"
Morgan: "Yeah. I don't like that other part."
Grrrrr... how long have I been feeding my child clumps of sugar?
So this morning, I smarted up and mixed the sugar into the oatmeal. Morgan claims it doesn't taste the same. Nu-duh. Oatmeal mixed with sugar tastes a lot different than, say, pure sugar.
Laughing... man this kid keeps me on my toes.
Makes me smile....I remember when my daughters would pick all the marshmallows out of the Lucky Charms cereal and eat only them, not the cereal itself. I think Morgan has a sweet tooth like her mother....frosting and choc chips for breakfast. :-)
