Petchay for Breakfast

Brenzie woke up early today and whispered to me, "I'm so hungry."

I answered, "What do you want for breakfast?"

He said, "Petchay!" 

I didn't quite understand what he said, so I asked, "French fries?"

He was a little irritated, then said slowly, "P-e-t-c-h-a-y!"

I couldn't believe my ears, so I checked if he really knew what he was asking for, so I asked, "What is the color of 'petchay'?"

He immediately answered, "Green!"

His wish was granted right away and he had "petchay" and rice for breakfast. 

Conversations with the kids

Brenzie is such a talker now.  Just this afternoon, he came into the room feeling a little sad.  He told me, "I am starting to cry" while showing me his very sad face.

On our way to school today, Trixie asked me this question, "Mommy, is it very hard when you have an itch and you don't know where to itch [scratch]?"
