Then, I got some milk and sat down to enjoy some freshly baked, warm cookies. Elijah, who up until this point had been playing quietly on the floor, began to cry. I put my cookie down and began talking to him. I gave him a different toy. . . still crying. . . I gave him juice. . . still crying. . . I picked him up assuming that he was just tired and wanted to be held. . .
Still crying he pointed straight at the baking sheet of cookies sitting on top of the counter. And, then it hit me. . .
He is old enough to know a good thing when he sees one!!!
So, I handed him a cookie and sat him in his high chair. He devoured the cookie in no more than 3 bites. He took the cookie in his hand and smashed it. Then, he surveyed the mushy broken cookie on his tray, grabbed a handful of mangled pieces and forced them into his mouth. And, nothing could have made him more happy! Here he is in all his cookie loving happiness. . .
Yum! Yum! I like this!!!
Give me another.
Now.

Smart boy! He knows that there are few treats that compare to fresh baked cookies. Very cute pics!!!
There is a boy who knows how to properly enjoy a cookie:-) Good for him for getting his point across that he deserved a nice, hot cookie, too!
That is about the cutest thing! I LOVE the 2nd picture - my girls - all three of them LOVE cookies and it did not take them long to figure out when they were missing something :) Sunshine
That is too cute. He looks like he means it in that last picture.
