Little miss genius

Yesterday, I had four cookies left in a bakery box. My three youngest kids were eating lunch and the 2-year-old, Amy, finished first. So I opened the box and told her to just take one so that Jo and Beth could each have one when they were done. She took out her cookie and said, "There will be one left. Who will eat it?"

That IS very bright for a 2-year-old!

I think she deserves a reward for that. Perhaps a cookie?

Now that's trouble. She can subtract and she knows her cookies!!
