You tell your kids to eat their vegetables, brush their teeth, drink their (goat and soy) milk and generally really healthy stuff that makes the little monkeys roll their sweet little eyes and sigh. Or not because children are contrarian and one day they love pak choi and the next it is weird. The point is that you are likely doing your absolute best for your kids because you love the little creatures, but sometimes you need to be a cool mom or dad so you go to the market and after you safely tuck into your shopping bag the pork chops, eggs, zucchini and all those vegetables you'll cajole your children into eating, you wander down to Rosemary's Chocolates and swat little hands away from all the beautiful baskets of chocolate so you can buy a small bag of chocolate dinosaurs. Because a little chocolate is good for kids, and it's good for you to hear that your kids think you're awesome.
I was always a treat mom and now a treat grandma, I agree kids need chocolate just like we do. And nothing wrong with a little indulgence once in awhile, maybe for a job well done, or just because they are just so cute today. Cute post, thanks for sharing.
