The slippery slope

Today, Ellie had pizza (real, no-hidden-vegetables-or-redeeming-value pizza!) for lunch and frozen yogurt for dessert! Grandad (currently called "Papa" because "Grandad" is too hard) was the culprit, giving Ellie big spoonfuls of strawberry yogurt -- but I couldn't blame him -- Ellie was SO excited and, as Damian says, looked like "the cat who got the cream." With each mouthful, a sweet, this-is-the-most-amazing-thing-I've-ever-tasted smile broke across her face. I suppose it will be cheetos and candy bars in no time, but she's so sweet -- who can resist making her happy like that?!

Ahh, yes, the "if I look super cute they'll keep giving me the good stuff"! You held out longer than most parents (definitely longer than us!), so you're still in great shape! Yeah for pizza and frozen yogurt!

I love it! Sweet little Ellie must be in heaven. Just don't tell her where the meldowns are being kept:)

All kinds of delights are coming to mind. The family reunion will be, oh so much, fun!
