An Apple A Day

I have a daughter who is love with this delectable fruit. It doesn't matter what kind - red delicious, granny smith, skin on, skin off, she asks for apples almost every hour of every day (almost). In fact, her first complete sentence was said two weeks ago in her highchair in the kitchen while munching on the aforementioned fruit. What was it?

"Mama, I love apples."

:-)

Needless to say, I was a psychotic and crazy mother for NOT buying any apples while we were down at our farm in Georgia this past weekend. Not that she didn't have a wide variety of fruit - she did! Strawberries, bananas, tangerines... she had plenty to eat with her morning cereal and afternoon snacks. But did that satisfy her fruit-love? Nooooo. Of course not!

So guess what this suckered mommy did for her daughter on the way home.

While daddy was getting gas, mommy ran into the McDonalds attached to the gas station and bought a $1 bag of apple-dippers (sans caramel) for her. Her reaction? Well... I'll let you imagine it. ;-)

I'm a hero.
