Twinkie Taste

Yesterday, Ellie was given her first Twinkie (courtesy of Papa). I love to watch her facial expressions as she tries something new. With the very first bite, her little eyes lit up and she continuously smiled throughout the entire experience. When it was all devoured, she had Twinkie goo from her head to her toes. And even Sarah, Mamoo and Papaw's Dachshund named after the Mrs. Palin, enjoyed the few crumbs that Ellie so generously dropped onto the floor around her highchair during her delightful repast. Now, I can't say the salty Japanese soup she tasted last night was met with the same enthusiasm as the Twinkie affair. But, she was still willing to give it a try. I am enjoying these days tremendously where she will taste anything and everything that she is offered. (But not so much the things that aren't offered but still find their way in her mouth such as paper.) There's nothing quite like sharing new experiences with someone who appreciates them so much. I hope to continue sharing new things in her life and look forward to a lifetime of her beautiful smiles.

  1. It is good to know that, after all of these years, I'm still getting children hooked on junk food :)
