While we were at the Zoo last week Daniella wanted a Slushie. I try not to buy anything extra when we go out, so when I agreed the kids were happy! I even went back to buy popcorn. While I stood in line, Bethany came and compassionately said Daniella spilled the Slushie. Refills were only $1.00, but the kids didn’t know that.
I finished in line and walked to the picnic table to see Daniella crying and hanging her head. I gave her the new drink and said it would be okay. The wind was so strong that a blast most likely blew the drink over. Daniella didn’t feel much better so I asked if she’d like to sit in my lap. She said yes! I liked that. I straddled the bench and Daniella leaned back against my chest. I held her around the waist with my hand full of popcorn and she pretended to be an animal eating out of my hand. When my hand was empty she turned it upside down and shook it. We laughed. I got another handful of popcorn and we continued that way until all four of us consumed what was in the pail.
