Park and Starbucks

I think I might be creating a Starbucks addict and adding her to the millions across the globe, who flock daily to satisfy their caffeine cravings. Well, I am starting her off easy- an order of kid's milk. Next she'll move on to hot cocoa like her cousins. And soon, she'll have a tall, nonfat, no whip, iced mocha latte with an extra shot of espresso!!!! AACCCKKK!!

Well, never mind that. I'm sure I can wean her from it.. as long as I don't make that right turn before the freeway, she'll be spared. Or am I just needing to wean myself? Ok, it's not like I'm there every single day.. wait, I just remembered, I DO buy a starbucks drink almost everyday from 7-11! I am drinking one right now! Maybe I shouldn't talk about this...

Anyway, I did promise Rachel that I will take her to the park. Again, she missed her nap (I think she's doing this on purpose) and was a bit crabby in the afternoon. We stopped at Starbucks to kill some time so that we can miss the 5:00 traffic jam coming into our one way in, one way out little town. We finally get to the park and she was ecstatic! We did a few runs on the slide and she walked up and down 3 little steps (0ne of her favorite things to do). Finally, it was time to get home because I was cutting it close to dinner time and daddy was on his way home. The day ended great with a big smile and a hug from my little one. Don't they just melt your heart??

Till next time!!

P.S. We did miss the traffic coming back home. I wonder what would've happened if I didn't stop at Starbucks?? Hmmmm... we'll never know ;0)
