Myra is Santa

Myra comes up with some good ones now and then. But the most favourite in Myra Metro lately is her insistence that she is Santa.

Example:
MUMMY: Myra?
MYRA: Santa!
MUMMY: Sorry. Santa?
MYRA: Wot?

And when she went into school and saw that someone brought in a stuffed Santa for show and tell, her first words when she saw it were, "Look, Daddy! It's me!"

Mummy found Myra taking her food from her plate and seeming to put it under the table. Curious, she asked, "What are you doing, Myra?"
"SANTA!"
"Right. Sorry. Santa? What are you doing with your food?"
"Feeding my reindeer."

Daddy has been asked everywhere we go to make sure that the reindeer are tied up securely. Apparently, shopping carts and car seats are "Santa's sleigh."

How long can this elaborate game continue?

Kids' first pizza

Today Vincent and Myra made their first pizza. Myra really liked blending the ingredients of the dough together while Vincent especially enjoyed rolling out the dough. Myra is very particular about the placing of the pepperoni and achieves quite even spacing between them. Vincent liked shredding the cheese although Daddy was concerned about having little finger slices on the pizza so he took over early in the process and let him spread it on top instead.

When the pie was done they were so proud they insisted on taking a picture of it with their cameras. It tasted good whether the photo is upside down or not.
