Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Tim. Tim loved cookies. One day, he saw a mighty big cookie jar on the kitchen table. He wanted to eat all the cookies inside.
Tim had a plan. He would go to the cookie jar when his mom was not looking. When his mom went to the other room, Tim ran to the jar. He was so happy! But when he opened the jar, he found no cookies inside. Instead, there was a note.
The note said, "You are a good boy, Tim. Go to your room for a surprise." Tim went to his room and found a big plate of cookies waiting for him. His mom knew he loved cookies and wanted to give him a special treat. Tim learned that good things come to those who wait.
