Yesterday I was peeling and slicing big onions in the kitchen. Cass came into the kitchen to read her story book to me. She’s displayed a great interest in reading lately and has shown a promising improvement 🙂
I told her not to stand too near the chopping board and I said “ONIONS WILL MAKE YOU CRY”, to which this rascal who seems to have a rebellious streak in her retorted “NO, IT WON’T MAKE ME CRY. I DON’T CARE!”. Those words challenged me to make her cry right away with the onions *evil mummy!*  So I brought a piece of sliced onion to her nose and asked her to sniff it. Then I sniffed it too. And I said “LET’S SEE WHAT’S GOING TO HAPPEN NOW!!” And as I felt the sting of the onion cut through my nostril and sailed through to my inner nose right up to my tear ducts and eyes, I saw Cass tearing too. As this moment I burst out LAUGHING LOUDLY and said “SEE!” and then the both of us laughed and laughed and rubbed the tears off our eyes!
