Wherein I discuss breakfast with Red, Boop, and the Bear

Me: OK, go make your beds and get dressed while I make some cinnaomon toast.
BB: But my bear wants scrambled eggs.
Me: Your bear?
BB: Yes, he wants five.
Me: Five real scrambled eggs, or pretend ones?
BB: Real ones.

RH: Don't worry mom, if he doesn't eat them, I will.
Me: If the bear doesn't eat the eggs?
RH: Yeah.
Me: Do we really think the bear's going to eat the eggs?
RH: Umm.....
