Good Fortune

I had my first 29th birthday last week. To celebrate we went out to my favorite Chinese restaurant. It was a delicious dinner with good company and I enjoyed myself immensely. One of my favorite parts of a Chinese meal always comes at the end --fortune cookies!!! Now that Seth is able to eat fortune cookies I find it especially entertaining to read his fortunes.



I'm assuming that by "wisdom" they mean "parents."

After Seth had finished eating his fortune cookie he asked for more, and in typical toddler style threw a fantastic fit after being told that there wasn't any more. I chose to give Seth another cookie instead of spending the rest of my birthday dinner engaged in a power struggle. (The staff of the restaurant was more than happy to provide a large bag of cookies for Seth, but he only got one from the bag. We have the rest in our pantry.)

Here is the fortune from his second cookie; please note the tear.



How appropriate!!
