Then she says "Okay!" and we eat as fast as we can. So I think we could pass the marshmallow test. Raven is the best waiter. Bing Bing is the 2nd best. Sometimes, when mom says OKAY! I eat Raven's and my treats cuz Raven waits a little too Helio from Nebraskanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6831973523430732234.post-20926470612819366232011-06-24T06:18:54.613-07:002011-06-24T06:18:54.613-07:00Hi Puglet,

My mummy...I think I would fail...yup I would fail!<br /><br />My mummy took this test 14 years ago when she was in pre-school. But they gave her a bell to ring if she wanted to give up, mummy lasted 3 minutes out of the ten, and then after pre-school asked her mother to buy her marshmellows. So mummy ended up with a whole bag +1 marshmellows...fail, I think not :)<br /><br />Love<br />Oisín xOisínhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17396340390264846735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6831973523430732234.post-30474861424012969592011-06-23T21:56:11.484-07:002011-06-23T21:56:11.484-07:0024 hours without eating the lonely pretzel??
