This little man sits hands
entwined
So calm and peaceful at
this time
Content to sit wrapped in
a quilt
From time to time he'll
laugh and tilt
Soon he'll want some juice
or milk
Free refills he would
gladly bilk
I'll offer him some other
choice
But he'll refuse and raise
a noise
We might be able to
compromise
A sage solution, I
hypothesize
Though most likely it will
be
He gets what he wants, the
little baby

This is about my son, as I watched him over the past few mornings, content to sit on the couch by my side while I read. His happy contentment lasts anywhere from 15-60 minutes, depending on the morning, and then he'll demand some liquid sustenance. He's not very fond of the 'solid' solutions I try to offer him, and usually I end up giving him a bottle with the understanding that he will eat some real breakfast once his bottle is consumed. Any of you ever had similar experiences?
