Today, I came home from work at lunchtime to quickly devour a ham sandwich and spend a few minutes with Laur and Erin. Erin was watching Maggie and the Ferocious Beast on the Noggin network when I came into the living room with my sandwich & cup of water. I set my cup down on a little tray table, and as I settled into the couch to eat my sandwich, I mistakenly bumped the table with my knee, sending the cup of water sprawling to the floor. For a second, the room was silent save for the sound of the television. Erin and I made eye contact, and a sly little grin spread across her face as she parroted a phrase to me that she has heard directed her way many times of late:
"Dadoo, you made the mess, so you clean it up."
