Recently, as I checked out of Fairway (our grocery store) Oliver was caught waving an unwrapped, massive gourmet chocolate bar in the air. I gasped in surprised and everyone near glanced over. I must have parked him a little too close to some chocolate when I ran down an isle to grab something. The checkout lady thought it was pretty hilarious (they rarely smile). I laughed pretty hard too. He picked a good one; it was tasty!
I regularly cart my three kids in one of the craziest grocery stores in the city. (I witnessed a fight break out between two women in the produce section a few years ago. No joke!) Mothers, who have left their children in someone else's care while they shop, have offered their praise, touting, "You are an inspiration!" or "You are so brave!" I believe there is a fine line between bravery and insanity. And I'm not sure which side of the line I'm on. ;)
