You maybe needed to be there!

The kids and I were in town today running a few errands. Avery and Ada sat in the back snacking on a box of wheat thins. All of a sudden, I see Avery holding his chest and I hear him in a painful and concerning voice say " Mom! My heart is going to explode!" I quickly said, "Explode?, are you hurting?" He said, "Yes, I feel like my heart is growing too fast from all this healthy food." Okay- now the red flag can be put away! That boy! I question,"Healthy food? You've had too much healthy food?" " I think I need some junk food to help me feel better." he says. He was of course being silly and I joined in and said, let's see if a drink of my Soda will fix ya! Sure enough! It was the cure. I knew that Diet Coke was a good thing! Addison and I had a good laugh. You may have had to be there, but at the time, it was hilarious! He put me in a state of alarm then right into laughing. I love that kid!

Sounds like a kid who knows how to get what he wants, at least sip of your Diet Coke. Try it on yourself and see if you can get some of the wheat thins you provided for him.
