Coffee Break

This morning as Ethan and I were walking out the door I grabbed my coffee cup and Ethan said, "Mommy, you drink a lot of coffee. Maybe you need to take a break from coffee. I mean, you drink it almost every day and haven't you been drinking it since I was a baby? That's six, almost seven years--that's a long time! And did you drink coffee before I was born?"

"Yes, I did."

"Well, I think maybe you should take a break from coffee! Why do drink it every day?"

"Because I like it." (I almost launched into an explanation about addiction, headaches and savoring my quiet time with my coffee in the morning. Since I hadn't drank any coffee yet I didn't have the energy for that much morning conversation!)

Here's to my delightful and VERY SATISFYING morning fix . . .
