Got Milk!?

Yesterday while we were grocery shopping we went down the cereal aisle.....

Me-"what kind of cereal do you want?"

Tyler-"the TV told me this one has a car in it", "I want this one"(he can't read yet)

Billy-"I can remember we used to buy the cereal we didn't even like just because it had the best toy!"

So, in that moment Billy and I had 2 choices. We could have told him "we are not buying cereal just beause it has a toy in it" or "ok, put it in the cart"......

Needless to say the first thing we did when we got home was dig into the box to get the cheap little plain yellow car, which may I add spent the whole evening on the kitchen counter....lol. However he did get that exciting 45 second rush of opening the box,finding the car, grabbing the car and then...it was over...hahaha

In that moment, as parents, it was like we went straight back to our own childhoods and there was no way we could crush the dreams of our son and force him to buy a healthy cereal with NO toy!!!
Of course back then there was always something in every box of cereal and you saw it on the commercials every 2 minutes on Saturday mornings!!!! Not really the case anymore.

Awe, sweet memories:)
