We had grilled chicken sandwiches for dinner last night, and Alex proclaimed it the best thing he has ever tasted in his whole life. That immediately morphed into a conversation about how healthy chicken is, and how we try to eat healthy food as much as possible. And then he went too far...
Alex: Except for you, Mom. You put a KitKat in my lunch everyday, and that is not healthy. You need to work on that.
Me: Oh really? I need to "work on that?" Well, alright, if you say so, I will stop giving you a KitKat in your lunch.
Alex (without skipping a beat): Well, it is a mini KitKat, and that isn't that bad, so maybe you should just put it in there every day but like...3 days...or something.
Me: Interesting. What days do you think I should leave it out?
Alex: Hmmm...I would say probably Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
Me: How 'bout since it's a mini KitKat, I'll just keep putting it in there so you can have a small treat with your lunch at school?
Alex: Yeah, that sounds good.
