you don't know my body (17/365b)

rieding concerto

Theodore has spent the last few days very tantrumy, irritable, hungry, angry (hungry+angry = hangry, one of mary and my favorite words) ... his appetite has been abysmal, which is extremely unusual. Mary walked him and Henry to school this morning. She came back, to tell me 

"You don't know why Theodore's not been eating"

"Oh no, did he throw up on his way to school or something?"

"No, no, no, he's not sick, he just is trying to get all his energy from the sun."

... Oh. well, that explained that. We fed him a lot of food today. He ate gigantic amounts of everything. He stood in front of the counter and ate out of the serving bowl. When that was gone, he asked "if there was any other food in the house." He wasn't so hangry any more.
