Crackers

Jonas has moved up to a new class at his daycare and now, when Mom or Dad go to pick him up, it usually coincides with the last snack of the day—two Saltine crackers on a paper plate. While Jonas is naturally excited to see us, he also has made it clear if we arrive anywhere near this precious time that his priorities are 1. crackers, and 2. Mom or Dad. Yesterday, Dad arrived just as Jonas and friends were sitting down for their snack. And Jonas seemed pretty thrilled about the chance to finish eating...

...and even while the rest of his buddies snacked along, the smiling Jonas proceeded to cram his crackers into his mouth, making sure they were all accounted for in there, before running over to give Dad a nice hug.
