Doughnut World


So, yesterday I babysat my niece, Sara. It was a crazy day, and Kate was struggling with not getting as much attention as usual. So, when Andie and Sara went down for naps, Kate and I headed off to the local bakery. (I'd heard the sugar cookies there were to die for!)
I didn't tell Kate where we were going, just that we were going to have some special mom and daughter time.
As we pulled into the parking lot, Kate saw the sign, which has a big doughnut on it. She said, "Mom, we're going to Doughnut World?" I then proceeded to tell her that it was not in fact "Doughnut World," but just the Bakery. She didn't believe me.
Kate pointed to the sign (with the big doughnut), "Mom, there's a doughnut, look (she points to said sign). It's Doughnut World." She has such good logic for a three-year-old.
Through my laughter I reply, "Okay, Kate."
So, I hearby bequeath the name "Doughnut World" upon our local bakery. May the name forever remind you of the day I took my daughter to your fine establishment. At least in my mind this bakery will forever be "Doughnut World."
