No!

Spoon held defiantly.

No peas.

No carrots.

Revolution in a high chair. Someday he’ll eat me out of house and home, eating everything in sight.

For today, he can only say, No!

Trifextra’s 44th challenge is to write only 33 words on rebellion or revolt. Since I’m on a gramma-type kick this weekend . . . the above is what you get.
🙂 Enjoy

Reading favorite books were special times with my daughters, then grandchildren, when they were young, leading to cuddles and snarky comments, and laughter – always laughter.

Sometimes there were tears; reading Where the Red Fern Grows almost did me in. It’s hard to read over a lumpy throat.

Day after day, year after year, each successive grandchild would sit at our breakfast table; Grandpa cooked pancakes while Gramma read. All ears at full attention as both soul and tummy were filled.

Despite modern electronics they all still love the printed page. I’d like to think our special times contributed to that.
