Last night at dinner I was trying to get Katherine to talk about her day. She has a bad habit of asking her mother what they did, and pretending that she's forgotten. In particular we were stuck on what they did for lunch, because Kerry wouldn't tell her and she swore she couldn't remember.
So the conversation went something like this. "Ok. Let's work our way through the day. What did you have for breakfast?" "Life cereal." "And what did you have for snack at school?" "Daddy, I didn't have snack, but I can tell you what it was. It was Oreo cookies and Pirate Booty." "And what did you have for lunch?" "I can't remember." "Sure you can, you remembered breakfast and snack and those came first." "Daddy, I have a memory book in my mind but my head forgot to sign it down!" ….Well, that's different.[BlogEntry] Mental Memory Book
