Will You Be Okay, Mom?
As many children, Rowdy Rebel has a crazy sweet tooth. Because he’s SO crazy about them, I have found it easier (and healthier) to limit his major snacks to once or twice on weekends. Though, he’s learning that once in a while, he can have a lollipop or other type of candy without screaming incessantly for another–moderation is good, and he seems to be catching on.
Anyway, the MAJOR desserts Rowdy Rebel and Deep Thinker get are ice cream and/or donuts on the weekend with Dad. That’s their special thing.
So, I was somewhat shocked at this little dialogue I just had with Rowdy. I asked, “Are you going with Daddy to get your donuts pretty soon?”
He looked up and said, “Yeah, Mommy. Are you coming?” I said that I probably won’t go this time–the baby is due in 6 weeks, so there’s just not much room now, even for donuts!
And Rowdy Rebel asked, “Will you be okay by yourself Mommy? Need me to stay with you?”
STAY WITH ME WHEN DONUTS ARE THE ALTERNATIVE OPTION? I’m almost crying right now.
