Holden has recently been put in charge of “making” cereal for himself and his brothers. During one such snack occasion, I overheard them talking about having another brother or sister, unprompted by me.
Me: Holden, why are you guys talking about having another baby? Do you want another brother or sister?
Holden: Well…. actually, no.
Me: Why?
Holden: That’s just too much cereal to make.
*If only he knew that this same reason almost prevented us from having kids at all.*
