"Dip, Dip"

One little lesson learned today...a chocolate chip cookie, a glass of milk, and a little two-year-old boy sitting on my lap have the power to defeat the grumpy attitude that can eat away at my day. After way too little sleep last night, and a day of pretty futile cleaning ahead of me, I was (as the kids so aptly put it) a "grumpy wumpus." Not grumpy at anyone, not stomping around...just your general grousing. But when Thomas and I sat down for a snack, I decided that this mama needed a cookie. Thomas crawled up in my lap, happily took his cookie in hand, and with the sweetness that only Thomas can muster, dunked his cookie in my milk and said, "Dip, dip." Bye, bye grumpies. You have been defeated by the power of the Tomma-Llama.
