Treats Make the Drive Smoother

It was a two drink kind of drive home 🤣 Sounds like drinky drinks. Not that kind. This kind.

McDonalds has a feature milkshake that claims to taste like orange and cream, and I REALLY wanted to try it to see if it was as creamsiclish as it sounded. And it was!!! YUM! Like. Its total trash, I don’t deny that, but it is a really fun delicious treat that our entire family was able to enjoy!!

There is a weird part of me that almost feels shameful when I buy all of my children a treat. Like, I shouldn’t, because its just too much. If we had two kids, I wouldn’t bat an eye. No one would. But when I’m buying nine milkshakes, it seems frivolous and inappropriate. I don’t know. I’m not looking for validation. Its just something I’ve noticed about myself, and I think I need to switch my mindset a little. Because its great that I can buy them treats like that sometimes! Its awesome, in fact! And they shouldn’t be without special things because there are a lot of them. Our family size wasn’t their choice.

So anyway. I ordered a schwack ton of milkshakes through the drive-thru today. Even for the bit babies, who care about that stuff now. Conveniently, snack size milkshakes exist for only $2! Cool, hey?

Anyway. I downed that thing super quickly, as expected, and chased it with a big coffee. Considering the nights we’ve been having, the coffee was necessary to survive to the end of the day 😅

And we DID!!! 🥳 Its definitely bedtime, thought. For all of us.

Goodnight, friends 💜
