The truth about parenthood

Yesterday for dinner we had a really good salad. Trying not to eat it all before hubby came home, I looked over at G's plate and noticed that he hadn't finished his serving. After establishing that he was not planning on finishing it I picked it up to polish it off. As I raised the fork to my mouth a thought occurred to me,

"G, did you lick any of this?" I asked. 

"No, Mom." he responded.

"Are you sure?" I asked. "You didn't lick any of it?" 

"Oh no, I didn't." he assured me. 

Satisfied, I took a couple of big bites. 

G then casually stated, "I just licked off all of the salad dressing on the lettuce parts."
