Chase asked me to do "The Little Piggies" poem on his toes this morning; something I hadn't done with the kids in a long time.
This little piggy went to market
This little piggy stayed home
This little piggy ate roast beef
This little piggy had none
And this little piggy cried, "wee wee wee," all the way home.
Since we are in the thick of the "why?" phase now, he had a few questions for me after I finished...
"Mommy, why did that little piggy have no beef?" he asked pointing to his fourth toe.
"Because this little piggy ate it all up," I replied pointing to the third toe.
"Oh, I will give him some beef then. Mommy, why this little piggy cried?" he then asked pointing to the baby toe.
"Because he's a baby and babies sometimes cry," I answered.
Apparently satisfied with my answers, he replied, "Ok." and went about his business.
