Conversation

Mom and daughter are sitting on the couch watching "A Chorus Line" at 7:40am. They have been up playing for about a half an hour. It is a Saturday. Mom has completely forgotten to even ask daughter if she wants breakfast.

"Mommy, can I have something to eat?"

"Of course."

"Ohmygosh! I didn't even have my gummy bears." (note: the gummy bears are vitamins which are typically procured FIRST THING upon waking.)

"Oh no. I'm a bad mommy."

"No you're not. You're a great mommy. Just get my gummy bears."

After a beat. Mommy is thinking about what to make for breakfast.

"What do you want to eat?"

"Gummy bears!"
