A Story About Life With A 2 Year Old

I'm sitting at the breakfast table with Lincoln on my lap. We are eating bagels with strawberry cream cheese.  Sto and I are laughing as we recall the movie we saw last night.

Lincoln has some urgent business he needs to discuss and is interrupting us by saying, 'Mom, mom, mom, mom, mom.' I already told him I was talking with daddy and he had to wait a minute, so I was ignoring his repeated requests for attention. He then grabs both of my cheeks and forcefully turns my head. 'Mom, look at me', he says very seriously.

He now has my full attention. His face is about 3 inches from mine. He then, in a very solemn gesture, proceeds to rub his cream cheesy bagel all over his face….What?!
