It’s been HOURS since I’ve eaten any of Chase’s Halloween candy. I’m so proud of myself! 🙂 He was only allowed to have one piece today, but I allowed myself to have several. Is this bad?
I REALLY love candy. Pace rolls his eyes when we’re watching TV together and I end up with a pile of candy wrappers next to me.
When I was little, and would have the sacred privilege of enjoying candy, I would offer some to my mom and she would always say, “No, thanks.” And I would marvel: How is she able to resist? To this day, I still wonder. Because if I am offered candy, I am unable to refuse. And if Chase’s huge bag of Halloween candy is calling to me from the pantry, I heed the call. That’s why, often times, I still don’t feel like a grown-up!
