Top 5

There are exactly 5 things that Cash loves in this world.(not counting people)

1. Crackers. He loves crackers. Remember "if you love it so much why don't you just marry it" from when we were little? Well.. If it were legal, he older, and had the money for a marriage license he might actually do it. How many times Cash requests crackers in a day is uncountable. He wants them for every meal and when he's done he wants them for dessert as well. He asks for them when he's mad, sad or happy and even for Christmas.....this boy loves crackers

2. Dr Seuss...Specifically Cat in the Hat and Green Eggs and Ham

More Specifically the train page, up to this page he whispers "it's coming....momma is it coming?...it's coming..." He loves this page


3. Trains! Cash could talk about trains all day and he sees trains everywhere we go

4. Sandwiches- Every other night I let the kids pick their dinner in exchange for them eating what I pick on the opposite nights. Cash will pick sandwiches 96% of the time, Yuliya will pick cereal 100% of the time.

5.His dog. There's nothing like a boy and his dog they are a team always, whether they are creating trouble or in time out. Cash will lay down in front of the crack of a closed door and whisper to soldier when he's drying out from a bath in the bathroom or laundry room.

Now that you know all of this, let me tell you about our night. We got home and ate dinner, Yuliya had? Cereal.
Cash? A sandwich

Now, Cash being 2, dawdles as he eats so, Yuliya and I were able to finish dinner, have her play, come back, and eat a serving of yogurt.  Cash still had a half sandwich left to eat.

The sun still goes down pretty early so we headed out to the yard to water our flowers and newly planted veggies. First the tulips, seeds for veggies, then wildflowers by the mailbox. Next we moved on to the backyard where we watered the new flower bed(more on that later) and the garlic, onions and shallots we planted yesterday. As my little helpers are helping me water and tend to the alliums Cash lights up seeing Soldier! He runs up to him(forgetting to hold his food over his head as he normally does) and goes to pet his loyal dog with "the sandwich hand"...big mistake. 

Poor Cash had his heart broken as his dog swiped his sandwich in one big bite.  How bad we all felt for him(except Soldier) as he cried broken hearted big fat tears about his Sandwich!(4th favorite thing) that His Dog! (5th favorite thing) took from him. 

Not to worry all ended well as Cash was able to substitute yogurt for his missing meal.
