So because of the sickness in the house, me being Nurse Chapel and not the lunch lady :D... I decided to get us some lunch from "Uncle Ron's" (McDonalds). I have noticed in past meals from Uncle Ron's, that Abby doesn't eat much. So being the frugal person I am, I decided only to buy her some fries and a drink. This would shave off a buck or two... If she wanted a bite of a burger she could have some of mine (she unsually only wants one anyway).
Everything was going according to plan. Abby ate a couple fries, a sip of drink. Then out of no-where she started whining. You know that high-pitched, "you give it to me" whine? I had no idea what she was complaining about. Finally after we went through the, "Do you want a drink? Do you want a fry? Do you want my burger?" Mike finally figured out what she was missing. I could have died with laughter, a little bit of astonishment with a hint of, "this is probably the first of many..."
What she wanted was her "Happy Meal Treat". While mom was trying to save a dollar, I had overlooked Abby's toy. I had never noticed her ever playing with them outside of the initial inspection; maybe a bit more if it happend to light-up or spin... Well, I guess I have now been educated.
