I take Kubla with me to the grocery store.  We get to the checkout line.  I see three people in line in front of me.  Kubla greedily eyes the candy deviously displayed at 4-year old eye level.  I launch one of our favorite games.

“Hey Kubla, do you know the Secret of the Bee?” He smiles.  I lean in to his ear and whisper “Bzzz.”

“Hey Kubla, do you know the secret of the pig?”

He says “Oink.”

“Shhh! It’s a secret!”

We proceed to exchange secrets and giggles until we are out of the store, in the car, and happily at home.  Here are some more of our favorite secrets.
