Too Much Sugar

Happy Valentine's Day!
Between Christmas, my birthday, and Kaia's birthday I was ready to be (mostly) done with sweets but this day of love has just started the next round. Despite my best efforts, the kids of course had plenty of sweets today, but at least at the end of the day it afforded this cute conversation.

Talmage: Mom, can I have another cookie?
Me: No.
T: Why?
Me: 'Cause you don't want your tummy or your head to get sick.
T: (two minutes later after I had already walked away) Or your arms to get sick.

I love the way kids think. I need to be like them more often.

I Know! I couldn't believe how much sugar we were intaking for Valentine's Day! I don't remember the other years being as bad :)
Tell Talmadge that I think my arms might have gotten sick, so he should learn from his aunt and not eat too much sugar ;-)
I keep looking at your family pictures and I just LOVE them! and I love that you already had some up at your house! We take family photos and then it takes me forever to put them in frames (like right now!) :)
