There are two things that he loves more then life, Popsicles and suckers. A long way down in third is dancing to music (maybe swinging but I digress). So in the car this week he was doing a good job listening so he got a treat of a sucker, which of course he loved. On the way home I put on some music (kid's, not dad's), specifically his current favorite of Icky Sticky Bubblegum. Boy did his eyes light up, then a sudden realization that he had a sucker in his hand. Big dilemma. Sucker is of course a given, but how to clap to Icky Sticky Bubblegum? First there was terror, then he thought of his escape, he would bite off the "sucker" from the stick and thus keep the sucker in his mouth while being able to clap to the bubblegum song. Much effort ensued in trying to cut the stick in two, nothing would work. Let me tell you, the face while this was occuring was priceless. So after awhile of trying and failing to disassemble the sucker he gave in and just bobbed his head to the music while enjoying his sucker.
Thus ended the sticky bubblegum and sucker incident.
