I'm going to blab my mouth and tell you all the secret-- we each had a cookie BEFORE we ate our lunch. I know. The kids were in shock. Dessert first?!? We made home made yummy cookies this morning and the kiddos had been eying them since the second they left the oven. I could see them salivating anytime they glanced towards the goodies.
So there the kids were, all of them sitting at the table, hands nice and clean and chit chatting to each other about the snakes (spaghetti) we were about to eat. I leaned in close and whispered "Can you guys keep a secret?" Their eyes got big and they nodded. "There is a rule that says grown ups can't give you little kids treats until they've eaten all of their lunch but for today only I thought we could sneak a cookie before we eat." Alex P was seriously grinning from ear to ear. My Alex was nodding and Joshie, Ty Guy and Kiara were just staring at me like 'did she say cookie? I heard the word cookie.' I made a big show of looking around and had the kids look around to make sure no other grown ups were watching. I made them promise to keep it a secret then I let them pick one off of the (now cooled down) pan. They were so cute! The rest of the time during lunch they talked about their secret.
