I Want My Mommy!
Hungry and lazy. A bad combination. That means I'll be eating instant noodles tonight. This is one of those moments where I'd really appreciate having my mommy around. This brings to mind something that happened many many years ago.
I must have been 5/6. It was lunchtime on the ski hill and we were all gathered in the Ski Scamps lunch tent. There was a little boy who was particularly upset... "I want my mommy! I want my mommy! I want my mommy!". He was screaming this out in the midst of gulping down his sobs. The instructors tried to distract him "How about some lunch? Do you want a hot dog? What do you want on it?" "I want my mommy! I want my mommy! I want my mommy".
The instructors gave up. "Okay, we'll go find your mommy and put her in your hot dog."
