Italian Ice

We had another beautiful day in Jersey. Daddy and I had decided earlier in the day that we would treat the family to Italian ices if it was still nice after dinner. I picked up the kids from school. I didn't mention the possibility of a treat. But on our way home we drive past Ralph's Italian Ices. As we drive past, John says "wait a minute. Mommy go back." I said what's the matter John, what did you see? He says, "I saw the ice cream place. Mommy, I was playing outside today. And I got really hot. Maybe we could get ice cream today." I can't believe this little guy. He certainly knows how negotiate. We got home and he and Gillian played outside on the swing set while I made dinner. After dinner we went to Ralph's and had our first Italian ice of the season. Everyone enjoyed it.
