Sometimes I forget just how young Ava really is and how much she has yet to experience. It's always the little things that she gets the biggest kick out of and I love watching her experience these things.
Yesterday I made tomato soup and grilled cheese for the 2 of us for lunch. It's not something that I make very often but the chill in the air makes me turn to soup a lot more often now. I set it down in front of her and she immediately starts eating the soup and tells me she likes it. This was her first time eating tomato soup which I had forgotten. She then takes a few bites of her grilled cheese. In the mean time, I had dipped my grilled cheese in my soup and taken a bite. She looks at me and exclaims, "Mommy, what ARE you doing?" I explained to her that it tasted good to dip my sandwich in the soup. That was it and she was off to becoming a dipping pro. She giggled and giggled and giggled all through lunch as she dipped and ate her soup and grilled cheese. It was like I had shared this grown up secret with her that she thought was so cool. It's one of God's great blessings that I get to experience all these little firsts with her, even if it is just dipping a sandwich in soup.
