Life is way way too short to wait for dessert.
As parents we often say no when there's no reason...adhering to how it is usually done.
why?
where's the creativity and fun in that?
In our home yesterday dessert was served with lunch...
not after...
and no boy had to choose between
chocolate chip cookies
or
ice cream.
They got both
...cookies jammed smack down into the parfait glass of ice cream,
along side organic cheese grilled on whole grain bread, organic grapes and potato chips.
Why bother with whole grain bread, organic cheese and fruit
when I served them potato chips, cookies and ice cream?
i dunno
Whatever...
in a matter of minutes the parfait glasses were empty.
The plates were empty.
The boys were happy.
Each of my boys knows my hope for them is that they be truly happy.
If a person is truly happy, it stands to reason that
they do no harm to others,
they are safe,
they are doing what they love
and
are loved.
❤
Hoping you will serve [and eat] dessert with lunch today, not after.
Hoping you to be truly happy.
❤
If you have happy words or a happy photo to share today, please do.
I'd love another reason to smile.
