Some of you may have seen the picture of our girls playing
family where they were "drinking" beer on my Facebook page. I would
like to make sure everyone understands that the beers were not open and they
were not actually drinking. The picture has also been removed from my Facebook
page at my husband’s request. The conversation goes as follows:
Scott: “Did you really put the picture of the girls drinking
beer on Facebook?”
Me: “Yes, I told you I was when I was posting it. I thought it was pretty funny.”
Scott: “It was funny, but you never know who might see it. What would
happen if someone just happened to report us to DHS?” (DHS: Department of Human Services)
Me: “When DHS showed up at our house we would be outside with the girls; you with a beer and I would have a glass of
wine. Probably not a very strong case in our defense; maybe I should take it
down.”
Scott: “Probably not a bad idea.”
Like Katie Breslin says, "Good thing Scott has the responsible gene."
When Kristin was little, we'd rinse out the first empty beer can and then refill it with water. She would happily sit in a restaurant in Lafayette, drinking the "same thing" as Mommy and Daddy. Reaction from other diners? They would give her money! And no one once EVER asked what we were thinking. Ah, back in the day. I'm pretty glad there was no MyFaceSpace back then, because I would have posted pics and my children would have been raised by the state, eventually.
ReplyDeleteI can remember drinking a Miller pony with crawfish. Back in the day, exactly!
