A Grape Setback


As a mom of two girls, I try to work on "lady-like" manners every so often, you know...sitting with legs together, keeping a dress or skirt down, table manners, etc. Well, yesterday I suffered a bit of a setback in this quest as I overheard Lee and the girls at the lunchtable. Sawyer and Lee had just begun rolling grapes back and forth on the table and Sullivan wanted in on the action and grabbed a grape or two of her own. And then this happened:

Lee: Hey Sullivan, put your mouth on the edge of the table and I'll roll one in!
Sullivan: Yea!!!
Lee: Wait, watch out for Sawyer's foot!

And then it all broke loose with Sullivan drooling on the table's edge, trying to gobble up grapes, Sawyer's feet on the table (and in Sullivan's mouth as well?) and squished and lost grapes on the floor.
I had to laugh!

Manners will begin another day. Ha!
