We All Scream For Ice Cream

There are times when I love having my children grow up.  Today is one of those times.

I have been working on a research paper rough draft all night.  The girls have been really good about giving me peace and quiet to work.  However, a little while ago I looked up and saw Megan getting ice cream and milk out to make an Oreo shake.  I received a nifty little Ninja for my birthday a few years ago that makes perfect one-serving shakes.

I know she only planned to make one (for her!), but I had to ask if she would make me one.  She didn't hesitate to agree. 

When the Ninja turned on Emily, who was practicing the piano, turned to me and asked, "What is she doing?"  When I told her she said, "Oooh!  That sounds good!"   Megan rolled her eyes but willingly made another one. 

Before she finished Emily's shake, Heather came out to investigate the noise, as well.  Megan made yet another shake before FINALLY making her own. 

My Oreo shake was doubly sweet knowing that it was made cheerfully with love.
