Finn has been going meatless lately, except for hotdogs and chicken nuggets. Actually, even those items haven’t been a big hit recently. Tonight I fixed dinner for the boys separately — and quickly — and so they ended up with apples, carrots and chicken nuggets. Here’s my pre-dinner conversation with Finn.
Finn: What’s for dinner?
Me: Chicken nuggets, because I think you still like those, right?
Finn: Yeah, I like chicken nuggets. I don’t like plain chicken [long pause] without the nugget part.
He went on to ask me if it was called “nugget” or “nuggin” and then told me to stop laughing at him. I couldn’t help myself; he’s just so damn cute.
In an unrelated story, Ezra lost his third tooth today. I hope the tooth fairy remembers to come tonight.
