tito and the far too big salad

last night at dinner ella was taking her time eating her dinner, so j. said that he would tell her a tito story if she took a bite.  ella took a bite and said "now tell 'tito and the salad'."

j. said: "once upon a time, there was a little gorilla named tito. one night he sat down to dinner and his mommy put a big, big, big, big, big, big, big salad in front of him and he ate it all up. the end."

elenora said: "okay, daddy, now tell it again, but this time make the salad smaller and the story longer."
