For the last several weeks, Andrew has been talking about having gum, "when I get bigger." Well, just the other day he brought me my pack of gum and asked if I wanted some. He helped me get a piece out and reiterated his schedule for future gum-chewing. I tore the stick of gum about one-third down and handed him the smaller piece. He looked confused and I told him that I thought he was probably big enough now to have some gum. His face just illuminated. I think it's the combination of being a big brother and now having gum that makes him feel really big. Unfortunately, I may have created a monster. He has had a piece of gum every day for the last three or four.
