Parable

From the Gospel of Dahlia:

"Suppose a little girl has a hundred Cheerios and loses one of them. Does she not leave the ninety-nine on the tray and go after the lost Cheerio until she finds it? And when she finds it, she joyfully puts it in her mouth and gets back in her highchair. Then she calls her parents and brother together and says, 'Rejoice with me; I have found my lost Cheerio!'."

I am just scared about where she found the cheerio...treasures can be cleaned...well...you know the rest.

wow, lavinia doesn't treat her cheerios like lost sheep at all. I think she thinks of them more like how squirrels think of nuts. She scatters them all around so that she'll have a little suprise to find later when she's wandering.

Aloria is totally like that...she drops one carrot off of her plate, and it's like, "uh oh"...and she'll "uh, oh" until you find it for her. Sometime I just grab another one off of her plate when she's not looking...reach down on the ground or in her seat somewhere, and then say, "here you go, mommy found it!" Usually works pretty well :-)
