half

Today, we were getting ready to go outside for one of my fun photo sessions...just me and the boys.  The dew was still on the ground and it was cold out but I was ready!  I decided to dress Max first.  He was sitting on the floor in his room and just under the old changing table, now dresser, was a pack of gum.  Yes, I bet they hid in Max's room some time ago chomping up all the gum and left a piece in the package.  Max gently opens up the package smiling as he is about to discover that there was a single piece of gum inside.  He looked up at me and said, "Oh, Mama, there is only one piece."  "Yes, I see that.  How in the world would you be sure Thadeus got some."
Max's look up at me, looks to the side, looks back to me and says, "um, go to the store and get some?"

Oh my...ha ha.

So I talked to him about sharing and by the end of the conversation he showed me how he could rip the last piece in half.

The cool ending to the story was that Thadeus did not want a piece at all...so his sharing paid off after all.
