Finished! Done!



Mammy! Daddy! Look! See it? I'm finished-done! My belly is full and I cannot eat anymore. I want more jup (sauce)! "Oh my goodness! You have the hand in the plum sauce jar!" Mammy says. Everyone has been trying to teach me some more manners. Using "I want" rather than "May I or Can I" is a favorite. I also like to say "I need this or that" which is also a No-No. I always say finished-done to communicate the fact that I want off my chair immediately. But Mammy and Daddy have been trying to teach me to have patience and that I cannot get instant gratification. That would be selfish.

Haven't I already taught you to say 'may I be excused?'
