Two Going On Coffee-Addict-Anonymous

You know your caffeine addiction is having a negative impact on your family when your two-almost-three-year-old sees you getting your morning coffee and you have a conversation that goes like this:

“Mommy?  Can I have some coffee pwease Mommy PWEASE?”  Big, dimpled smile.

“No, honey, eat your breakfast.”

“I NEED coffee.”

“You don’t need coffee.  You’re two.”

“No, I’m not two.  I’m FOUR!”

“Julie, you’re two, not four.”

“Yes I am.  I’m four.”  Cute giggle.  My silly kid.

“Well, fine.  You can pretend you’re four.”  I’m not going to argue with a two-almost-three-year-old.  This is ridiculous.

“Okay.  Mommy, can I have some coffee?”

*sigh*

I thought I created just a chocoholic monster.  Turns out, this kid can down a cup of coffee, too.  Parent of the year award coming right up.

In case you’re wondering, NO, she did not get that cup of coffee she was begging for.

    I drank coffee every morning with my dad until I was 16 – then it started giving me jitters. I also drank coffee and crackers (Ritz) crushed into the coffee with my grandpa when I was little. He drank most of his, then would let his little cocker spaniel Heidi finish the rest. Good memories.

    My struggle is with the no touching of breasts or genital areas unless a part of foreplay. God I wish I could get past that. I really don’t know how though, and it is probably one big sex-related issue that I will continue to have. Hell It’s been an issue for as long as I can frigging remember. blah
