While we were in San Francisco (pictures and stories coming soon!), my aunt gave me a stack of old family photos. This is me when I was Sam's age. The caption says, "Queen of the Dirt Pile" and my mom has narrated my thoughts with the line, "Ooh, this dirt is delicious!" In my baby book she writes about how she let me eat dirt so I would grow good, strong antibodies. I must admit, I rarely get sick. It must be working. It would seem I'm following in my mother's footsteps and Sam in mine, as he has a certain penchant for dirt as well.
