Conversation with Kenzie

This morning as I'm sweeping up breakfast....

Kenzie: Hey mom
Me: Yes Kenzie
Kenzie: I didnt tell the truth last night, I told a lie
Me: about what?
Kenzie: Well when you gave me a piece of cake and put the rest in the garbage...
me: wondering where this was going.....
Kenzie: I ate the piece you gave me, but then I took the piece out of the garbage and ate it too..
Pause-I think she was waiting for me to say something
Kenzie: and it was better than the first piece I ate

Me: silence......


yuck yuck yuck
