Scene: the hospital (
Wednesday, my dad had a heart catheterization - we got good news from it but because his surgeon had gone straight into a couple more surgeries, dad wasn't discharged to leave as soon as we had hoped. We were all trying to wait to eat...because dad really wanted some pasta from one of his favorite restaurants. As timed passed, we all got hungrier and hungrier. The nurse finally brought a boxed lunch - my dad shared his sandwich with Iliya - and a few minutes later, a hot lunch was served. Along with the hot lunch was a little carton of ice cream)
Melissa: Iliya, you need to eat the rest of this piece of sandwich, you'll be hungry if you don't.
Grandmom (my mom): Melissa, do you think he could have some I-C-E-...
Iliya: (interrupting) I want some I-C-E! I want some I-C-E!
