This boy has had a love affair with bread since the beginning. I once put him down for a nap, clutching a bagel, because he simply could not be calmed down without it in his hands.
So after a long day of errands, I took the kids to Panera as a reward, letting them choose any one thing from the case.
But my boy looked past all the pastries and smoothies, as he had his heart set on just one thing—a baguette, which he declared he would eat all by himself. I can’t even describe the glee with which he clutched that loaf.
Eat up, kid.
