Tuesday was Jack's birthday and it was just me and the kids for dinner. Rich had a work dinner he had to go to. When it is just me and the kids for dinner, I let them pick what they want. Jack said burrito and Kaelyn said quesadilla. Got to love that they love their mexican food as much and their parents. It was a little early to start making such a quick and easy dinner so I told them I would make it in a few minutes. They went back to playing, until a few minutes later Jack walks up to me and says "Moley Mommy, Moley." I looked at him puzzled. What was he trying to say. I thought he was saying "Molly" my in-laws dog, nope. "Movie Jack?".. no not what he wanted. I could not figure out what he wanted. Looking around the living room for anything that could be "Moley." I felt so bad. He was getting so frustrated with me. He eventually gave up on his idiot mom and went back to playing.
I then went into the kitchen to make dinner and it was like the light switch went on in my brain. I look over and see the avocados and ask "Jack, did you want GUACAMOLE?" I wish I had a picture of his face. The biggest smile suddenly appeared and he shouted "Yeah!!!" Like, it was about time you figured out what I was trying to say mom. I felt so stupid.
You are probably thinking it as well. How did I not think of guacamole? but it just didn't come to mind. Needless to say, I now know what "moley" is and considering it is one of his favorite things to eat, I am sure we will be having much more Moley in the future.
Jack went on to eat 2 avocados (guacamole) and his bean n cheese burrito. The birthday boy was hungry.
