Cookie Head

As I do every morning when I wake up, I headed to the kitchen to make coffee. This morning, missing from my routine were the normally clean counters and the addition was a certain bright red chair. Gabe's red chair. Right next to the Santa Clause cookie jar.

"Good morning, Gabe! Do you want me to get you some cereal?"
"No thanks. I finished the cookies!"
"You ate ALL the cookies?!!"
"Yeah, don't be mad Mom. They were soo good!"

At first, I was... But then I looked at this face, and how could I be mad for very long?

Hey what's wrong with cookies. My Mom ate cookies everyday for breakfast (no kidding) and she lived to be 90.
