Keeping Treats Special



We were at church the other day and they had some little cinnamon rolls sitting around. TT7 saw them and as usual got really excited. I asked her, “What if when we realized we wanted a cinnamon roll we went and got one that was REALLY yummy instead of just eating those because they’re here?” She thought for a minute and said, “Yeah, I think I’d rather wait and get one from Cici’s Pizza instead.” Wow!

Before, if we saw a sweet we’d eat it just because it was there. Now we are paying more attention to the quality of what we eat. If we’re going to have a treat (which is totally okay on occasion), let’s make it 1 or 2 really good ones instead of a whole bunch of the ones we just happen to come across each day.   

P.S. A true test of your willpower is to search "cinnamon roll" on Google Images. Holy Cowwww! Not approved or recommended by FFM.
