"So how much did you eat?" I asked my poor brat as I held up a tablespoon of Pepto-Bismol.
He winkled his nose at me but open his mouth, swallowing the pink liquid. Then he grabbed the
glass of water I handed to him and drank it down. "Won the Bratwurst eating contest." He showed me a blue ribbon for first place then he pulled a white paper out of his jeans pocket and counted out "25
pretzels." I helped him pull off his jeans.
"Four sodas," he told me as I help him to bed. "Two cotton candies, three Carmel apples, a couple of funnels cakes, a few corn dogs," he said he laid back, snuggling down into the warm blankets. "I know Brett snuck you beer," I told him.
He gave me a sheepish smile and held up two fingers.
"Rest my love," I told him as I pulled the blanket and tucked him in, kissed his forehead and turn to leave. "Doc," He whispered as I got to the door. "What Brat?" I asked. "What's for dinner?"
