Birthday Cake

DAILY SNACK

It was Nana’s birthday yesterday.

So C asks, “Do you think it’s time for cake yet?’

“Not yet. Let’s wait until everyone’s finished their dinner.”

And he patiently waited.

He ran around and around and “read” a comic book.

He played with this truck and that car.

Until the last person took their last bite of dinner,

And laid down their fork.

“Hey. So . . . would you like to have some cake now?”

He didn’t skip a beat.
