Monday Short

My education in home-with-a-toddler advanced a little more this morning when, from the next room, I heard the unmistakable whoosh of cereal rushing from the box to the floor, the entire contents of the box, no less. I’d foolishly left it on the table, within her reach, and she took the toddler approach to getting more cereal: lift box, turn over completely. Some of it did heap onto the bowl, but a lot more escaped onto the broad plains of the kitchen floor.
