What my Confessions are All About

As women, our lives are full of expectations. Expectations come at us from everywhere. We are supposed to be the perfect wife, mother, friend, employee, etc, but somehow, despite our best efforts, we never make it to perfection. This blog is an attempt for me illustrate some of my imperfections, hang-ups, struggles, and hardships while still realizing that I'm only human. And that's okay.

Confession #3 -- Sometimes I Eat My Kid's Snacks During Church

This year we have afternoon church. Terrible time, IMHO, but what are you going to do about it?



There is a grandmotherly lady that sits right next to us every Sunday at church. She absolutely adores Piglet and Tigger. She has adopted them as her grandkids since she doesn't have any of her own. Fine by me. Each week during church she has a little something for the kids. Usually there is a toy or two involved. Always there is a snack involved. And she brings good stuff, too. The stuff that I can't afford, and truthfully, probably wouldn't buy even if I could. (My favorite is when she brings chocolate covered peanut butter balls.) Occasionally, I find myself sneaking one or two into my mouth.



Ya know...if she just brought some plain Cheerios, this wouldn't be a problem!



BRING ON THE CHEERIOS!!
