Being Appreciated

Every day we impart important nuggets of knowledge to our pint-sized audience. Obviously, this is appreciated. Where else would they learn that teeth can't get clean with a singular, frantic swipe of the toothbrush, that you shouldn't feed the dog Pop Rocks and that not eating fruit can give you scurvy (that's our story and we're sticking to it). All that learning during the breakfast hour alone—you're welcome, kids.
