The Sucker Looks Better in Somebody Else's Mouth

We ate at Pizza Hut today after church with my family and a couple of long time friends. Because it is one of our family hobbies, our boys normally do pretty good when we go out to eat. That wasn't the case today. Blake was not his normal sweet chillin' self and pretty much drove Mase and I crazy. We ended up cutting our dining experience shorter than what we usually do because Blake was screaming "sucker" wanting Grant and cousin Torah's suckers eventhough he had one of his own in his hand! As a parent, this is more than frustrating!!! We got out of there as fast as we could, which still didn't feel fast enough. Fun times! We had only been on the road a few minutes when we looked back and saw Blake sound asleep with his sucker still in his mouth! Mase and I both laughed pretty hard at the irony of it all!

  1. Love it, Sonja! Kinda like adults, we often want what we see others have and not what we have. We strive for it only to find that what we needed was not that "thing"....sometimes what we need is entirely different (sleep)! Love you! Love hearing these wonderful stories about your family! Keep embracing your journey!

  2. Oh MY!! Cute and comical story. Although, I'm sure you and Mase were both exasperated by it all!

    Oh well...at least Blake may have gotten a good nap in, right?!

    Love you!
