A time to praise
I just have to share this story, and praise God for working in young lives. Today Jackson ate a couple bites of his eggs, but decided he had had enough. "Coh-coh" he said asking for a cookie. "No, you must finish your dinner." After awhile, Jack began playing with with the eggs. Squishing them, and shaking them about. I gave him a bit of strawberry, and he really liked that! Then I laid the strawberries on the counter, and said "If you eat a bite of egg, you can have a bite of strawberry." He thought about it for a minute, and finally decided to eat the egg. After three fist fulls of egg, I didn't think he was going to stop! Apparently he thought he had to finish the whole egg. Anyway, he's never done that before. Usually he waits for the one bite of goodness in between ONE bite of badness. I was so proud of him, and just had to tell about it!
