My story begins at meal-time one evening when Corban was constantly messing around at the table. We gave him the rule that if he dropped 3 items on the ground because he was fooling around he would have to mop the floor. As you can guess, he mopped that evening.
Ever since then, he started this routine where when someone drops something on the floor he will stab his finger in the air, bring it back down then point it to the person who dropped the food, then repeat while singing, "One o-on Rho-o, One o-on Rho-o." If you drop something else, two fingers go into the air, then to the person and "Two 0-on Rho-o, ..."
Well, we went out to eat for the first time in longer than I can remember. We went to the All-you-can-eat Chinese place where everyone can find something they enjoy eating. We had all gotten food and were eating when I look over at Kaela and she stabs her finger in the air a couple times, then looks down on the floor, then starts stabbing her finger in the air again with this big grin on her face. She had dropped some jello on the floor and was doing Corban's routine. She was even singing a couple of the notes, "Uh-uh, Uh-uh." She kept doing it all evening long and it was so cute to see her gap-toothed smile, jabbing her little finger repeatedly in the air and then laughing. One of those moments you wish you could get on tape.
