John was pretty tired yesterday evening when he was eating dinner. His eyes were kind of half open but he ate all of his food, albeit a bit slowly. When he was down to the last bites, I pulled his dessert into view - a couple of cookies. His eyes shot fully open at the sight and he immediately reached for a cookie and ate it. It was pretty dramatic and funny - and made me smile at life's pleasures that still bring joy.
