Finn got to choose the restaurant for our graduation celebration last night. He was very excited that it was his choice and no one could say, “We can’t go there.” He’d originally wanted to go to Slaw Dogs (the local hotdog place) but I gently reminded him of the make-your-own sundae option at La Grande Orange and then he was adamant that that’s where we were going. (I have to admit a selfish reason for my trickery, of course. I’ve fallen in love with their brussels sprout salad.)
Anywho, we finally got our act together around 6:00 and headed to the restaurant. Finn made sure he brought his Cottage key with him.
He and Ezra gobbled up their dinners and finally got to the much-anticipated sundae portion of the evening. They are expert sundae makers.
With only a small delay from the resulting sugar high, Finn, who was incredibly tired from such a long and exciting day, fell asleep like a rock. And made sure to find his Cottage key first thing this morning.
Sure wish I had kept notes. I do believe there was not going to be any manipulation of these children by any means……bribery, trickery, or promises of ice cream. Brussels sprout salad sounds very interesting. Slippery slope here. Could you be too many steps away from Mickey Ds? For shame Jamma, for shame.
