Who Stole the Cookie from the Cookie Jar
Yesterday Julia kept asking repeatedly for girl scout cookies. She didn't know they were girl scout cookies - they were cookies and she loved them and that's all that mattered. I told her she could have two. She threw a fit and I let her work through it.
Dinner was coming soon and I
She eventually ate the two cookies and I had placed the others in a baggie in a bowl toward the back of the counter. I went into the office to work on the computer and send out some emails for work.
I came back later - thinking five minutes at the most which is plenty of time for her to think of things to do - and Julia was nowhere to be found. I then heard scratching sounds on the pantry door. Noticed it was closed and opened it to find Julia standing inside while holding a bowl with cookie crumbs inside it and a half-eaten cookie in her hand.
She simply laughed and there wasn't anything else to say. Or do. Except laugh with her.
