The Perfect Way...

We've tried to shelter our kids from some of the commercialism that is so rampant. Evidently we failed...

Justin was joking about getting me noise canceling headphones for Valentine's Day, so I didn't have to listen to the kids while they're being loud.

Kate chimes in, "I know what I should get Mama for Valentine's Day."

"Oh Kate, you don't need to get anything for Mama."

"I should get her chocolate. That's the perfect way to say, 'I love you.'"

Oh dear. Thanks to all those hours sitting at the pharmacy my daughter has been indoctrinated by the ads playing nearby. I suppose I should be happy that she wants to get me something--and I sure do like chocolate.

How funny!!! You can try really hard to protect/shelter your kids, but in the end they're going to hear/see it all (even when they aren't out of your sight)!
