Maria and her bone

Today Martin and I had pork steak with potato salad. I had fed Maria all of her lunch already but as she sat in her chair she kept a close eye on our plates. Finally all her toys were on the floor and she was starting to bang on the table with her hands in a way that says, "I want some, I really want some." So Martin started cutting up a bit of his meat, but I decided why not just give her the bone...well she loved it. When Martin went to take it away, thinking that she would want the meat he so carefully cut up for her, she started to cry. If I had known bones made her so content and happy I would have been giving her bones after every meal. The only way we got her to give up the bone was to bribe her with yogurt, that worked!
