Jonathan, Caleb, and I recently spent an afternoon attending appointments and running errands. These two little guys have the idea that they are just as "big" as their older brothers!! So as often as we can, we slip away and have a day of enjoying being the "little guys" and mom!! I know that these sweet times are not going to last forever and so I delight in these days of "small things"!!
After a very good report from the dentist, we ran a couple of the errands on our list and then went to their favorite spot for lunch!! We giggled and talked and colored the menu while we were waiting for our order. I noticed that the two of them seemed to have a bit of a plan brewing. I caught on pretty fast as I could see their eyes light up at the sight of a certain chocolate dessert passing by our table every few minutes.
"Mommy", they both said with big eyes, "Can we have that chocolate mess if we finish our lunch?" Now we don't usually splurge on dessert when we go out as a family...but I have to say that I was a gonner when I looked at those toothless grins and twinkling eyes!! I suggested that they might practice the art of sharing...and of course as they say, the rest is history! And of all the messes these little guys can find themselves in...I say, it might as well be a chocolate mess! What a day! What a memory! :)
