There's a first time for everything...


and today, the kids and I shared a first. Their first taste of Kool-Aid and my first time making it as a mom. I had leftover cherry kool-aid (which wasn't used to make a drink) and it sounded good, so I offered to make some. At first they weren't too excited, but as soon as they saw the big smiling pitcher on the side they knew it must be good. It tasted just as good as I remember and I was quite nostalgic. Remembering my childhood, and the excitment my brother and I shared when getting to pick out our own packet of kool-aid. ( I was a cherry or grape kind of girl, hew was more the strawberry kiwi or raspberry type which I am sure was blue) This happened about once per year usually in the summer, when I guess my mom was feeling quite nice. Other than that kool-aid was one of many forbidden foods in our home. I am going to have to do damage control tomorrow, I am sure of that. I am quite certain that Jameson will request kool-aid for breakfast, and I just might say yes :)

Way to be an awesome mom! : ) Lawson would probably think he'd hit the jackpot if I gave him Kool-Aid! Even a bit of juice is rare for him, so I can only imagine. If Jameson has Kool-Aid for breakfast, I'm requesting pics. That's pretty epic! Lucky kiddos!
