Banana Boy


He loves bananas. He is independent. He wants to do it himself. So, at this stage, I give him the bananas, already peeled, but with enough to hold on to.

He makes short work of it. Then he holds it up and says "mo, mo, mo" (translation: more). I peel it down more, and off he goes. We go through this several times until the banana is down to the last bite, and I help him with it.

Of course, there's the distraction of the toy (and the tv) - you see it in his hands. He actually put down the banana for this one!

But soon, the banana is gone, the boy is happy, and we continue with our day.
