Num Num

There are certain moments in motherhood that cause you to stop.
Stop, lift an eyebrow, and look around suspiciously.
I had one of those today.
We have an island in our kitchen.
An island where a whole host of interesting things are dropped and left.
Scraps of lunch, homework, phones, toys, dishes, banana peels...you get the idea.
I figure that it's all just part of family life.
But today, as I was passing by I looked down and noticed this:
Um....
this is where that whole eyebrow lift/suspiciously looking around comes in.
Our dog was immediately ruled out because she looks and moves something like a bratwurst.
The two oldest kids can read - and therefore know that this is clearly not for human consumption.
The littlest one is too little to get the bone back up on the counter.
That leaves one.
I had to gag laugh.
When I asked him if he liked it, he said that it was "kind of yucky."
The dog however,
might be feeling kind of gypped.
That was her Christmas present, after all.
