Let Them Eat Cake

After dinner last night I brought out a cupcake with a candle for Damian and Molly and I sang to him. Nothing melts your heart like her little warble singing "Happy biiiirthday to Daddy..." But when it came time to eat the cupcake, Damian who had already had a couple of birthday sweets said he'd eat it later. The following is a truncated version of their conversation.

Molly: Daddy eat cake.
Damian: I'll eat it later, Sweetie.
Molly: Daddy eat cake.
Damian: I'll eat it when I get home.
Molly: No, Daddy eat cake now.
Damian: Okay, I'll eat some of my cake (raises cupcake to mouth).
Molly: Molly eat cake too?

Damian and Blair fall over laughing, and Damian shares his cupcake with Manipulative Molly.

    That's great! She's showing some aptitude for the behavioral sciences, I'd say... Loved the cute birthday pics!
