Seconds Aplenty

As I glanced over Prairie Boy's critical thinking book assignment for the day I instinctively *knew* what was coming. The assignment was to circle which of a pair of pictures would occur first. Check out the last picture sequence....

When asked his logic, he asserted that "First you eat... *then* there's dessert!" =) totally saw that one coming. The girls insisted he was wrong, because of course, first you have a full bowl, then you eat and it's empty. It was a good opportunity to talk about thinking outside the box ;-)
