Today we attended my brother-in-law's graduation.
Knowing how long graduations can be
(especially when the person you're there for is receiving their master's degree)
I packed a snack.
Yes, I am like a child.
I can't leave the house without a snack.
Today's snack of choice..
grapes.
As snack time came around
and I began to munch on my grapes
my nephew looked at them with his big blue eyes.
"Would you like some grapes?" I asked.
His blue eyes just stared at them some more.
I tried to hand my cluster of grapes to him.
There was no change in his expressionless face.
Same big blue eyes.
Same stare.
With the grapes suspended between us I asked,
one more time,
"Merik, would you like some grapes?"
His eyes shifted from the grapes to mine.
(The only movement he made since he first saw the grapes)
Hesitantly,
and with the disgust only a 4 year old can emote,
he asked,
"Um, does it have strawberry in it?"
