Chocolate has been a major obsession for a while. It is the color Marcello really prefers for footwear. In the summer, his sandals were all chocolate sandals.
He woke up yesterday and wanted a donut. So on the way to see our friends, we got one, double chocolate. I should have know that would lead to a double chocolate sugar crash. He started to get mad at NiNi about fake food that he had trouble sharing, so I took him into the kitchen where he spotted the mini brownies. Two minis later, I was cutting him off, so we had a tearful good-bye.
Walking through the park we saw 57 geese, 12 ducks, and 4 swans that took our breath away as they entered the pond. Marcello was barely mumbling about the "chocolate cookies" at that point. We ran into Olyvia at the park and had a great time with her and her caregiver from Columbia who is sweet and very capable of soothing her when Marcello pushed her coming down the slide. It was an accident! he announced sweetly after he said sorry. He missed a step and had a prolonged dramatic cry. As he finished, he searched her out, and the two of them sat in the tire swing until it was time to head out.
He was frantically hungry for goldfish at that point. He channels the tragic arcs of an opera singer on the days he wakes up wanting donuts.
