Thanks...?

Be grateful, dammit!

Two years ago this week, I was in the shower on a Sunday morning and the following short drama transpired:

Son (11 years old): *knocks on bathroom door*

Me: Yes?

Son: There are four pancakes in the fridge with your name on them!

Me: Thank you, buddy!

Son: Three out of the four are burned!

Me: OK!

Son: But they’re STILL FOOD!

End scene

I try to practice gratitude…
