For weeks, Todd has been asking me to take him to a pizzeria near our home. Since he received some money for his birthday, we agreed that a pizza date would be a fun way to spend it.
Todd enjoyed sipping his cup of milk, but he didn't enjoy waiting a long, long time for his pizza.
To keep him occupied while his pizza cooked, the waiter gave Todd some green play dough which was basically pizza dough with food coloring added to it. Todd wasn't very interested in playing with it himself, but he liked watching me shape some numbers with it . . .
. . . and write his name.
In the end, we agreed that the pizza wasn't that great, but Todd loved the complimentary birthday sundae. The ice cream was yummy, and it came with little cups of toppings so he could customize his sundae. His siblings were a bit jealous when they heard about it, even though we basically do that same thing at home every Sunday evening with twice as many toppings. I guess things feel more glamorous when you're sitting in a restaurant and someone else is serving you.
