“Ava, you can’t have a candy cane right now,” heard Ava after pushing a dining room chair over to the ledge and climbing up on it to be closer to the jar of treats. “Ava,” repeated her daddy, “no candy canes.” She hopped off the chair and looked up at the sweets again.
“Take ‘em away. They’re bothering me.”
(At the young age of two, Ava has discovered that the best way to deal with a temptation is to remove it. She has also learned that it is good to have a back up plan.)
As soon as her daddy had shut the cupboard door concealing the sweet temptations, Ava announced: “They’re for later when my grandma comes over.”
Oops! You found me out!!! Grandma Penny
That is great! I don’t think I had removing tempting candies in my thought process at that age!:) Shanel
For when Grandma comes over, or for when Shanel comes over to babysit, too, right??
I hear Ava gets her way with Auntie Shanel!
HAHA I love your little Ava. I love your way of writing about her. I love your pictures. I love you guys. Thanks for sharing her with us all to enjoy!
