Millie couldn't get enough

Last week while at Nana and Papa's house, they were all sitting down for dinner and Nana had given Millie some mixed fruit. She was trying to get her to try some black cherries and Millie wanted no part in it. She avoided having any of the cherries on her spoon, or in her mouth. But then, one accidentally escaped exclusion and found its way into her mouth. It was a black cherry explosion! She then couldn't get enough, saying and signing, "more, more, more."

I think that's how it is for a lot of people. They think they don't want to try something new, whether it be a job or a food or whatever the experience, and then when we finally get around to taking the plunge and trying it or doing something new, we find that we actually like it and want more. What took us so long? I guess the saying is true that "you really do learn a lot from your children." Thanks, Millie.
