Dropping off Theo the next day was tough on the little guy. I can say I was so proud of him. At one point he snuffled a little in the car but he held up nicely.
When we got to David's she took off and ran up his arm and went right to his ear and started to whisper. With a wicked smile on his face he whispered back so even we could hear him. "A lot of people fart in their sleep Theo." At that point My dear evil wife and David started to laugh.
Theo, thinking they might be laughing at her wailed "but it was real bad ones!". She jumped off David and ran into the other room followed by Monsa hand. I just stood there. Slightly red faced, and allowed them their moment of levity.
David, my evil wife, and I sat down to plan Theo's permanent move to our place. She, like all monsas, had a nest of her things that needed to be moved. Well, with her packing and our schedule, we decided that this coming Tuesday would be the best day for her to move.
Now I will say I was a little worried about the domestic situation. Theo and Monsa hand loved each other. Monsa, from a youthful romantic crush point of view, and Theo, from (I believe) a true romance point of view. I have no idea if they would work so my wife and I decided to help her set up her nest in the closet of the spare bedroom.
So with plans in head we rounded up Monsa hand, who was working hard to sooth Theo's hurt feelings, and headed home.

My wife walked in on us three having our breakfast and was stopped in her tracks.
"Are those eggs?"
"Why yes they are honey, and mighty delicious to boot" I then shoveled a great big glob of my salsa eggs into my mouth.
"mf mms msd mffm mfmf"(translated- "and that's the last bite") I sputtered as I chewed.
She had walked over and stood in awe as Monsa hand and Theo was nibbling on their own Chocolate scrambled eggs supreme.
"I thought Monsa hated eggs?" She looked at me in awe "Did you bribe him? Did you threaten him!?!?!"
Theo hopped up "It was me.He thought chickens were in them. He's silly. I told him that eggs were good and other stuff. "
"Other stuff?"
"Every bite I take she gives me a kiss on my cheek" With a mischievous look he took another super small bite and grinned. "She owes me 10 kisses already."
"She bribed him, not I. Now I can have poached, hard boiled, and scrambled eggs till I cluck like a chicken."
Well that sent the little ones off into gales of laughter mixed, with them and I clucking towards each other.
"Cluck! Cluck! Cluck! Cluck!"
So Monsa hand got a lot of kisses from his green eyed girl and I got my eggs. A good weekend overall!

"you're not making the eggs right." and "Davy does the toast better" and on and on.
While I was happy Theo was there the next morning for breakfast I will admit she got underfoot a lot and was VERY opinionated.
"Davy shaves the chocolate for my eggs, you use chocolate syrup and that's not right" she said that and shook her head in disapproval.
"Fine" I set three eggs in front of her "You do it" and went over and sat down at the table. As I picked up my buttered toast I looked over at her. To say she was shocked and very unhappy would be an understatement.
"But the eggs are to big for me" She was now trying to lift one over the edge of the pan, with little success. Now size wise this would be an egg the size of a footlocker for you or me.
"Well it seemed you did not want mine so you do it"
"I did. I did. I just.....You do it differently then Davy's and it looks strange."
I paused because she was starting to look worried.
"Will you at least try mine? You might like it"
"Ok." but she gave me the look I new so well from Monsa hand when I had him try new things. Total suspicion. "I try yours, but I not going to like it probably"
Breakfast was a lot better then I hoped it would turn out as. She finally admitted the chocolate syrup in the scrambled eggs was better then the chocolate shavings David puts in his, but she said the same syrup made the toast soggy and melted chocolate would be better. I agreed, after checking with Monsa hand as the house chocolate expert..
He didn't care though.
He hardly ate his chocolate toast at all., he just sat there and gazed lovingly at her with the pure love of youth.
Gag.
