The Moon is Sad...

Tonight Mom called and was bored. So we decided since I was bored to that we should do something together. I drove to her house and picked her up. We went to Chili's and had dinner. It was good. Steak, Chicken and Shrimp fajitas, lots of iced tea and some WONDERFUL enchiladas soup. If you ever get to Chili's, buy the enchiladas soup. You will be glad you did. The kids ate their dinner and wanted dessert. Now I personally HATE paying the prices for some fancy dessert that the kids probably won't finish when they would enjoy something like a dilly bar from DQ for 1/2 the price. So I said NO to dessert at the restaurant and we left with Mom and I knowing that we would stop at DQ on the way home.

Jasmyn gets in the car and the conversation goes something like this:

J: Hey is that the moon? is it full?
Gma: yes Jasmyn it is full.
J: Momma the Moon is sad.
Me: Why is the Moon sad?
J: because we didn't get any dessert.
Gma: Why would the moon be sad over you not having dessert?
J: Because the Moon wants us to eat ice cream.

Now who can refuse the moon? LOL! So we drove to DQ. I ask the kids what they want. Kaleb says a Cherry Dilly Bar. Mason says yes when I ask him if he wants a chocolate one.

Me: Jasmyn what do you want?
J: a chocolate one with that white stuff in the middle.
Kaleb: Jasmyn, ahhh it's Ice Cream, Heeeeellllllloooooooo.
Me(trying not to laugh): Kaleb don't be rude to your sister.
J: Yes I would like a Chocolate one.

We order, pay and get our dessert.

Gma: Jasmyn is the Moon happy now?
J: Yes Grandma. We have our ice cream, the moon is very happy.
Kaleb: The moon is following us. See him walking right above us.
J: The Moon doesn't have toes, Kaleb!!!(laughing)
Gma: It is shaped like a ball, do you think it rolls to follow us?
J & K: (laughing) Noooooo.
J: it just goes like this...(hold hand up and acts like Moon is an airplane flying next to us.)

Their little imaginations work overtime. And I feel so blessed when they share their perspective of the world with me. It is a much pretty picture through a child's eyes.
