It is such a good skill for Michael Jr. to practice...digging out the ham and pineapple is probably preparing him to be a surgeon...maybe the ones who get out the gall stones. Or maybe he'll be an archeologist and live the life of Indiana Jones. Could be worse, I'm telling ya! You are preparing them boys for greatness, and I'm glad they are singing your praises!
