Mama’s sugar high

Dear Miss Leyba,

Thank you for helping me unpack the groceries.

I am so glad that you were utterly fascinated by the shrink wrapped (all-natural) candy canes (that I am saving for Solstice). Colorful boxes covered in plastic are such fun to play with.

I know that the candy canes are colorful and intriguing, but sorry, love, it’s going to be a long while until you try refined sugar. That’s because sugar is BAD for you.

I try to set a good example for you, but this is one instance of do as I say, not as I do.

Love,
Mama
