The things they remember

Seth and I were eating breakfast the other day. I was eating some sort of cereal with flakes, and he said he didn't like that kind. He liked the kind with the sugar on them. I said "frosted flakes" and he said "yeah, frosted flakes. We had them in Myrtle Beach in the little boxes". (we got one of those variety packs of cereal).

So years later, he won't remember how we played on the beach (that one day it wasn't raining), or went to the aquarium, or all the other fun stuff. He'll just remember he had cereal in little boxes. Because THAT was the cool part for him.

How sweet. Cereal in little boxes are cool. Fortunately we have 3 yr olds to remind us of that. Thanks Seth. I needed that.
