Poor Isaac and Theo
Isaac and Theo both have many fine qualities.
But Amos sure seems like he’s trying to make both of them look bad. All the time.
This morning, I was trying to teach him how to say please, either verbally or in sign language. He really wasn’t getting it. Fruit, bread, milk, cheese–nothing was tempting him to say “please.”
So I gave up and sat down to my breakfast of sauteed kale and eggs.
He started whining for my food.
I said, “No, Amos, you won’t like it. It’s kale.”
Do you know what he did? Do you know what that little stinker did?
He signed “please.” Like he’d been doing it all his life.
So, of course, I gave him a piece of kale. And he loved it. And kept pestering me for more. By signing “please.”
Little stinker. Don’t get taken in by the cute face.
