Different

July 19, 2012 By morgan

Milo eats his favorite parts of the meal first and saves the worst for last. I do the opposite.

I see a cardboard box and think recycling. Milo sees a cardboard box and sees possibilities.

Milo sometimes pees in bed, could care less, and keeps on sleeping. I can’t go back to sleep after I pee in bed.

I bat righty. Milo bats lefty.

Milo is a Yankee fan of convenience. I am a steadfast Yankee fan. (Milo roots for the Yanks if he wants something from me, and roots for the Red Sox if he wants something from Rachel)

I prefer to eat breakfast in one sitting. Milo prefers to eat 1 bite, play, another bite, play, 2 bites, go see what mom is doing, 1 bite, leave the house for 3 hours, returns and demands to know where his bowl of cereal is…

Milo lives in the moment. I worry about the future and regret the past.

April 6, 2012 By morgan

Milo: “What’s that?” pointing to food on his plate
Morgan: “Polenta”
Milo: “What’s it made of?”
Morgan: “Corn”
Milo: looks at Morgan skeptically
Morgan: “Well, not corn on the cob…corn meal…” Morgan starts to look frazzled
Milo: “Polenta…like, the polenta in your body?”
Morgan: “Whaaaat?”
Milo: “yeah, the polenta in your body”
Morgan: “Milo, I don’t know what you’re talking about” Morgan definitely looking frazzled now
Rachel: “Do you mean placenta?”
Milo: “yeah, the placenta, the placenta in your body”
Morgan: “oh…well not exactly, that’s something different” cracking up and no longer frazzled

I’m going to be different than you.

It started with telling Milo that I needed to clip his fingernails.

“Dad, when I’m an adult can I grow my fingernails long?”

“Milo, when you are an adult you can do anything you like”

“Like what?”

“You can grow your fingernails long, you can sleep all day, and you can eat a candy bar every night. But you know what, I’m an adult and I clip my fingernails, I don’t sleep all day, and I don’t eat candy bars every night.”

a moment of silence

“Dad…I’m going to be different than you.”
