December 12, 2011: While
on this train heading to the main bus terminal in Brasilia, I noticed a Brazilian
woman sitting in the corner with her husband and their adorable 4 year old
daughter. Wired on sugar she was waving
around her toy bubble gun being cute, saying something in Portuguese that I didn’t
understand. Climbing all over her mom
like she was a jungle gym she got a smackdown – immobilizing her for only a few
brief minute or two.
Dropping into her moms lap, I saw that the girl was imitating
a kitten. “Meooooow – meow – meow,” she goes. Then I noticed she was trying to pull up her
mom’s shirt, thinking that the girl is now pretending to be a kitten being fed. But…seconds later, her mom’s shirt goes up as
the girl goes under, attaching her mouth onto her mom’s breast for a refreshing
mid-morning drink of warm milk at body temperature.
Once finished, the little girl seemed to quickly crave
chocolate, grabbing a big chuck of it from her father on the floor next to them. Now this is my question: Don’t you think the girl should have eaten
the chocolate before drinking her mother’s breast milk, instead of after?
