Two of our boys have a “special”. It started years ago when Jacob decided a bean and cheese burrito was his special. No salsa. No sour cream. Just the burrito. Not to be left out Joshua chose jell-o. Any flavor. That way he could have lots of specials… well, we don’t have jell-o that often. Which led to his request to have grilled cheese sandwiches and/or jell-o be his special. Now whenever we have those foods they announce to the whole family it is their special. It took a few years, but two weeks ago after church Andrew chose his:
A pancake. Hollowed out in the middle and filled with strawberry jam.
Not just any strawberry jam. Store-bought strawberry jam. And then fresh homemade jam spread across the top. He was very specific and super pleased.
Here’s to many more Drewby specials.
I’m lovin the special. Maybe he should cook for the family reunion one of the nights in July. : )
