After reading “The Cat in the Hat” to four-year-old Isabella:


Iz: Daddy, can I read the Cheerios book to you?

Me: Of course.

Iz: You don’t have to help me… Just scratch my legs, rub my feet, and pull my toes… And use lotion.

Me: Have you been listening to Mommy again?

Iz: Yeah. A little bit.



Mommy (from the next room): And make sure he mashes your heels!
