If you are listening to the popular Mary Poppins ditty A Spoonful of Sugar (which, of course you are) take care to pay close attention to the lyrics regarding robins. "A robin feathering his nest has very little time to rest while gathering his bits of twine and twig. Though quite intent in his pursuit he has a merry tune to toot..." If you listen closely you'll be able to tell your mother later about robins who toot in their nests, "Two robins! They toot. Yeah, robins toot in their nests."
*Mommy note: Well played Carolena. Well played.

When arriving home from Kroger if your parents allow you to carry in the bag with a loaf of bread in it, be sure to maximize this opportunity. When your mom asks you to bring the bread to the kitchen so that she can put it away ask her which loaf of bread to which she is reffering. "My baby bread?!" Carry the baby bread around for the rest of the evening. Poor baby bread. Why has no one cared for her in the past? Give her a clean diaper and pajamas. Wrap her in a blanket. Carefully hold her, sing to her, and rock her. Baby bread is such a sweet darling baby. Treat her as such.

Host parties for your stuffed animals. They give you so much it is really only fair to give them something fun in return. Be sure to offer them their beverages of choice and play your red can "drum" for them. They'll want the party to rage all night long so act shocked if you return in the morning and the animals have retreated to their boxes. Hmph. Mommy probably broke up the party. What a stick in the mud.
