Picking out the bacon

As people who know us well know, Trey travels a little bit for work sometimes. When he has to go, Thomas frequently asks why his daddy has to go to work (because he has to ask "why?" about everything!). We sometimes say "Because Daddy has to bring home the bacon." Lately though, this has led to some interesting and comical commentary from Thomas.

When he left one day recently Thomas said, "Daddy has to go get some bacon because we don't have anymore and we need some."

Tonight he has been fighting bedtime. We are potty training and he has already called me up there twice to potty (even though he wears diapers at nighttime). When I went to get him the second time (he can get out of his bed, but he's actually pretty good about staying in it!), he asked me if his Daddy was home. I told him "Not yet!" and he said, "Oh. Because he is still trying to pick out the right bacon?"

As a side note, we've been potty training seriously since Thursday and it's going remarkably well! I'm so proud of Thomas!
