The magic word
Posted on Friday, April 14th, 2006 at 9:52 amMaggie has learned “the magic word” in recent weeks, knowing that if she asks “please?”, she’s more likely to get something than without it. Only she can’t quite say “please?”, it’s more like “peas?”. She often combines this with a cute bob of the head that melts your heart and almost makes you want to give her ice cream for dinner instead of broccoli. Of course, the magic word doesn’t work in that situation, but it will work if she asks me to pick her up even though I’m really tired.
Speaking of broccoli, Maggie loves the stuff. Most kids hate it, but she’s been known to pick it over chicken nuggets. And you know she’s half-Chinese when, asked what she wants to eat, her first response is usually “tofu!”, followed by “rice!”.
