M in a Box

or Reason #24702 why I never get anything done

I went to the library on Monday afternoon to pick up a book on reserve. On the walk up the stairs on the return home, M was insistent that HE NEEDED THAT BOOK. Since he generally likes to eat books, I gently told him that it was Mommy's but that I would get him his books 3 or 4 times as I climbed the stairs. We get inside the apartment and I get him his books.

Great relief.

Until I decided he was playing happily enough to warrant using the time to start packing. No sooner had I made the box than he was insistent that HE NEEDED THAT BOX. Fine. I'll just make a pile to put in the box.

Until HE NEEDED TO BE IN THAT BOX.



Needless to say, we didn't get much packing done.

He's getting bigger, and if possible, cuter still. He's the first thing I would pack. And fish eyes.
