Madeleine's favorite field trip

Hey so remember last week when I bought myself some wine to celebrate making it through my husband's three week business trip to Maine?

Well I brought the girls with me on that trip. Obviously. Can't leave such little ones home alone.

That was their first ever outing to a liquor/package store and apparently it was very exciting because now when we drive past Brady's Liquors, Madeleine begins to shout, "LOOK MOMMY! IT'S THE WINE STORE! IT'S OPEN! YOU SHOULD BUY SOME WINE!"

Now I am not a drinker at all. I might have a glass of wine or a cocktail twice a month. Maybe. So this is a bit embarrassing to me. She screams it with the excitement usually only held for the park or her school.

So, you know, this just means I can't invite new people for joy rides around town, lest they believe I am some sort of lush.

Parenting. It's never boring.
