Sharing Boy

A couple of weeks ago, we made the switch to whole milk. Everyone told me he would love it and it would be great! Not so much...Tucker HATES milk! We tried to add a couple of drops of sugar-free chocolate, and he drank that for a few days. As of this morning, he would throw his cup and yell "uice". His Aunt Wendy called shortly after, and I expressed my frustrations to her. She suggested adding a little bit of Instant Breakfast. Success! He downed a whole cup during story time this morning at the library. I was so proud when he held his cup out to the boy next to him and said "uice. Bite." The librarian stopped and thanked Tucker for being so nice to offer to share his milk. We sat and listened to the rest of the story until Tucker threw down his cup and yelled "gone". Heaven forbid we sit and listen to the story without having something in his hands...he then began diving toward his bag wanting a "bite". I dug out the snack trap of crackers, he ate and offered others "bites", and all was well.

All of this to say...Tucker is learning to share and it is so darn cute!
