Sydney's Epiphany

While out and about doing errands and spending time as a family I always have kids shouting " I'm hungry", " I'm starving" or just generally "whaaa, whaaa, whaaa".  Sometimes I keep a stash of crackers in my purse for such instances but usually find my purse running low on such supplies.  On such a occasions I usually dig out my back up of gum or tick-tac's to secure 10 mins of peace.

Yesterday I gave all the kids a sliver of mommy's "gum" to which Sydney replied...


"This changed my whole world!"


It's like her whole perspective on life changed in that moment in time.  Who knew what a few minty crystals and gum paste could do for a 7 yr old?
