I forgot to share a little gem with you about what Jack had to say about the ruined cake made over into a cake in a jar that I posted about yesterday!
After we had several of them lined up on the kitchen counter, Jack said, “Mom — I think this should be the thing you make.”
“What do you mean, Jack?”
“You know, this should be the thing you make.”
Apparently saying it a second time in the exact same way was supposed to help me understand what he was talking about.
“I still don’t know what you mean, Buddy.”
“You know,” he said, obviously exasperated with me, “the thing you make. Like how some people just have a thing that they make. This should be your thing that you make.”
I couldn’t stiffle some laughter. That kid makes me exasperated all the time, but I just love his facial expressions and the emphasis he puts on words in these kinds of discussions.
“You mean kind of like my specialty, Jack?”
“Oh yeah,” he responded with a tone that also sounded like he might as well have been Joey from Friends and said, “Hey — how you doin’?”
I’m thinking it might be time to ruin a cake again soon.
