(Probably the most heinous self portrait ever taken.)
Scout came into my bed this morning to cuddle.  After telling me he loved me and kissing the baby a few times, we started up “would you rather….”  It went a little like this:
M: Would you rather be a crocodile or a big huge whale?
S: A Crocodile so I could swim in the ucky water.
M: Would you rather be an elephant or a monkey?
S: A Monkey so I could swing from the trees.
M: Would you rather be a bumble bee or a butterfly?
S: A Butterfly because they have beautiful colors.
M: Would you rather live in the freezing cold or the boiling hot?
S: I would want to live in the snow and have the sunshine make us warm.
Then he gave me a clue as to what to ask next –
S: Ask me if I would rather be an elephant or a kid.
M: Would you rather be an elephant or a kid?
S: I would only rather be YOUR kid.
And then he smooched me all over my face.
I’ll take that game any morning of the week.
