I've Created a Monster...

...Cookie Monster, that is!
Happily eating a cookie It's getting smaller and smaller... ...and MESSIER!



Today I was munching on crackers with lunch and Kensley kept giving me this pitiful look as if to say, "Mama, why won't you share with me?" Being a [wimp] I gave her a whole Nilla Wafer after experimenting with a crumb yesterday. When the wafer got a little smaller than I was comfortable with her handling, I took it and began breaking it down so she could finish it as she had yesterday. IT WAS THE END OF THE WORRRLLLLD! Kensley was mad and completely brokenhearted. I had never seen her get upset like that about a "thing" (naps are another story). Eventually she calmed down enough to realize that she was still getting her cookie, but just in a different way. Clearly, Kensley inherited my love of food!
Can you see the pitiful tears?!?! She was soooo hurt!

A tearful cookie mess!

You can't have my cookie.
