Feeding Time

Gusi is a sweet little boy. He has been so good about having the baby home. He wants to hold him, kiss him and even feed him. Yes. Feed him.

Hungry baby cries.
Gusi: Mami, what's wrong with my baby brother?
Me: He's hungry sweetie.
Gusi: Mami, Gusi wants to hold his baby brother.
Me: Sweetie, he needs Mami's milk, that's all he eats.
Gusi: Gusi has milk too Mami.
Me: Really?
I put the baby to breast so he can feed.
Gusi walks over to take the baby.
Me: No sweetie, I need to feed him.
Gusi pulls up his shirt, looks at his chest and then at me.
Gusi: Mami, Gusi can feed the baby because Gusi has milk too.
Me: (laughing) Maybe you can feed him next time, ok?
Gusi: Ok, can I play with the train then?
Me: (still laughing) Sure.
