Sharing is Caring

Scene: All of us were eating cereal at the breakfast table.  Ryland picked out his 2 boxes of cereal (Kix and Cheerios) and was on his first bowl.  Tab is eating Honey Combs.  We keep Ryland away from the "sugar" cereal so he is not allowed to eat Honey Combs.

Ryland: "Daddy, can I have some of your cereal?"
Tab: "No, this is daddy's cereal.  You have your 2 boxes of cereal that you picked out"
Ryland: "Daddy, sharing is caring.  Can I have some of your cereal?"
Tab: "No, this is daddy's cereal."
Ryland: "My teacher said 'sharing is caring'."
Tab: "Yes, sharing is caring.  So you can have one bite of daddy's cereal."

I guess they have been working on sharing at school.  We have never heard Ryland say "sharing is caring" and he held it until the perfect opportunity.  And how can you say no to that request :)
