Ask the right question...

Yesterday morning Harrison wanted an oreo cookie. I told him he could have one after breakfast. A few minutes later I heard him in the kitchen.
I asked him what he was doing...Our conversation went like this•

`Nothing mommy`
`Are you sure?'
'Yes Sir' (he doesn't have that straight yet)
'Come to my room and see me'
'Yes Sir'
'Did you eat a cookie?'
'No sir'
'Are you telling me the truth?'
'Yes sir'
'Let me see your tongue..' (evidence of an oreo)
'Did you eat an oreo?'
'No sir'
I went to the kitchen and looked. There was a small bite was out of the cookie.
'Harrison...did you eat a cookie?'
'No sir'
'Did you eat a bite of a cookie?'
'Yes Sir.....'

Guess I had to ask the right question!
