“I have ice cream seven nights a week, that is not an exaggeration. My kids have it (maybe) two times. That is not because I’m worried about their sugar, that is because I do not want to share.“ I love this, and this was well needed after a very busy weekend continuously tending to and serving the family!

Aw thank you so much for this ! I had shed tears just before reading this . My sons are 5 and 2, it literally hurts how much I love them I literally feel it in my heart I was sharing with my husband how it’s hard seeing them get older . He responds “ it”s awesome and their awesome” . I just don’t want to miss anything ... yes I’m selfish so so selfish with my time with them and I’m not regretful about it.

OH yes, the good chocolate and the Swiss Cake Rolls are all mine.
And I WILL light those table socks on fire.
Just try me…

I hide the chocolate and while I won’t let them eat too much of it I secretly feast on it. It’s my little reward for everything that I do for my 4 and the family, my little moment to myself. It great to know you hide too and have your own stash! Love them sure do. I actually think I should be a heck of a lot more selfish!

I am a stay at home mom of 4 … I love this article.. I hoard also… My time, ice cream, and moments with my hubby; their Daddy.. He is only home on weekends bc of his job and we all miss him and want him to themselves.. Greedy little bugers… I run errands without them usually and even sometimes get fast food and then his the evidence before they come home from school… You will always find time to spend with your minions.. Hugs, kisses, watching them interact with each other without fussing, and you will smile and laugh… These moments will last forever in your memories.. They grow up fast, I know. My oldest of almost 21 and my youngest is 8…
