You have a baby...in a bar?!!?

My kids LOVE to dance to live music.  Growing up in New Orleans I can remember going to bars to see bands with my parents and my Aunt Patty.  So to me, bringing a child to a bar is a right of passage and completely normal.  However, the people in Jackson don’t quite feel the same way.  That makes me about the only mother in the area calling the bars and asking may I bring my 3 and 2 year old to hear the band if we promise to leave after the 1^st set.  On several occasions I wish I was asking in person because as soon as the person covered the receiver you know they were using the line straight out of Sweet Home Alabama.  “You have a baby…in a bar?!!?”  It’s gotten to the point where I know which bars will allow the kids to have their much loved dance parties.  The girls also know which bars and will usually make their request on Friday night.
