Raspberries

While we were in Idaho this past August, Alex discovered raspberries. My family has a large raspberry patch and we were there during harvest season. Alex would come into the kitchen and see the trays full of raspberries on the table and counters and start pointing and fussing until he was given some of the delicious raspberries to eat.

Today I made him a piece of toast and put homemade raspberry freezer jam on it for the first time and he loved it. When he eats something that he loves his eyes light up, he gets really excited, and starts making a noise that is a mixture between him laughing and saying "mmmmm". He looks at you with a questioning look in his eyes like he is thinking "How come you never told me about this before?" and then continues to pluck the food off his tray and pop it in his mouth as fast as he can.
