milk trick
you can't see milk in a white bowl. this was an observation made by bennett when he was three. he put it into practice yesterday. he ate his cheerios and left some milk in the bottom of the bowl. then he put his bread plate on top of his bowl and dutifully carried the lot to the kitchen counter. where i grabbed one in each hand with the intention of putting them in the dishwasher. what i really did was pour milk all over the kitchen floor. that's my boy. we were in a hurry to get to school and didn't have a chance to discuss it. he tried the same trick again this morning. but you can't catch me twice with the same gag. he tried to play all innocent like. but i know better. he's my boy.
