I’m one to keep my word and recently at Story Time, my vow to honor my promises was put to the test—by a three-year old. He was admiring the pretty bow my daughter was wearing and I absentmindedly bet him that she would pull it out in no less than five minutes. He (having more faith in my daughter) said she would keep it in all Story Time long, and if he were to win would like cookies and if I were to win he would give me a turtle, oh, and he likes chocolate. You don’t need to be a rocket scientist to guess who won—chocolate it is.
