The other day Bubba and I were in the kitchen whipping up some goodies. He was in a very helpful mood, so I asked him to go into the pantry to get me some Lipton dry soup mix that we needed for a dip.
I instruct him to go to the shelf where the cans of soup are and look for some blue boxes that say soup mix on them. I knew this was a pretty simple task, as they were quite visible and just barely below his eye level.
I hear a little tiny noise, so I think okay he has it. Well he does not come right out, I wonder why but wait another second or two.
Then he says to me “Mommy are you a slow cook?”.
Perplexed, I respond “why do you ask?”.
As he walks towards me with the box of soup mix he replies, “this box says it is for Slow Cookers, so I want to see if you are a slow cook because if you are not then you can’t use this”.
Ahhh the joys of an emerging reader.
