There's nothing like a little ice cream to sweeten your mood. Why is it when you get more than 2 kids in your car that everyone starts to talk a little louder and those who choose to cry, cry really loud (Auttumn)? I swear you would have thought I had 30 kids in my car when I picked them up from school. Boston was screaming, Auttumn was rolling the windows up and down, locking and unlocking the doors and trying to escape, screaming....all at the same time. All the other kids were trying to be heard (talking way too loud) and mom...I was going a little crazy. I was already in a foul mood because I got into a political conversation, which I'm going to try and avoid from here on out if I want to stay sane. And Boston, of all kids, broke my cool necklace that I had just finished making. All but the conversation happened on my way home from picking the kids up from school. Needless to say when we walked into the house I started shouting orders and yelling at them to pick up their stuff. I could tell that all the kids just wanted to find a friend to play with so they could get away from me. Savannah was the only one that successfully found somewhere to go. I sat down to feed Boston and thought to myself I really need an ice cream. So I got the kids in the car and we went down to Artic Circle and bought ourselves some yummy ice cream. It was a win win situation, the kids quietly ate their ice creams and I devoured mine. All better.....

Tell me you have tried the Nutter Butter Cookie dough from there?? All I have to say is PURE HEAVEN!! It's my fav. I'm right there with ya, ice-cream fixes it all. I swear we are "sisters" Amy because we so think alike, it must be because we have the same name, who knows. Glad you enjoyed!
I agree...Ice cream fixes ALMOST anything! I have MANY days like the one that you just described and I only have four kids! Seriously Amy, you are my hero and are such a great mom and example to me. It was so good to see you on sat. it has been WAAY to long, I miss ya girl!
hilarious! DIdn't I see you at school yesterday.. You looked great and so happy! Ice-cream is a good fixer-upper, but so is a great day of skiing with a friend while the hubby's take over! Call me. I've got my new skis - they are heaven and so so FAST! Let's go tear it up! Maybe a couples ski day even! HURRY - we don't have much time left!
