What do you want?

Phew! It's been quite a week but we're on our way home from an amazing time with family and friends. We love you all and miss you already. The next time I see you our family will have another member!
I do have to share one quick story while it is fresh in my mind. It was a fun-filled week, but if you're 21 months old it can be overwhelming. T was having a moment. Desperate we were offering anything to calm her down, each of which was met with a quick "no". Running out of patience, B said to her "well, what do you want?"
Now, T hasn't quite mastered answering open ended questions just yet. Sure enough though, after a moment to think about it, her teary reply came.
"M&M"
Seriously, who could resist that?! Unfortunately there wasn't a single M&M to be found in the house. Luckily, she settled for one of Grammy's homemade oatmeal butterscotch cookies.
