My husband on the other hand has his sugary favorite . . . good ole' Captn' Crunch. He can eat an entire box in one sitting. He has been known to take a mixing bowl, fill it full of cereal, then place his hand over the bowl while pouring milk to prevent the cereal from overflowing. I only buy this cereal a few times a year, which makes it a really special treat for my husband.
Upon my last purchase, my youngest daughter, Aggie, discovered her love of this cereal as well. I brought home my quarterly purchase of Captn' Crunch and before my husband even had his first attempt at a bowl, she had eaten the entire box! It took her a few meals and snacks to accomplish this, but she was successful.
Back to the store I went for another box.
With Aggie's new found love of Captn' Crunch, Adam decided he should also have his hand at this sugary treat, so he also chowed down and polished off another box. Again, this was before Ladd had the opportunity to have a single bite!
Back to the store I went for another box.
Upon return home with this box, I informed the children they were to leave this box alone so their dad could have a bowl. Because I made such a hustle bustle about the situation, Alexandria then decided she better try herself a bowl as well. The other children saw this and assumed I had given permission to open the box and before you knew it . . . poof! All gone! Really?
Lucky for me, I had hidden another box and Ladd got his very own box that Saturday morning. Yes, he shared.
Now when I want to get the kiddos together quickly in the kitchen, all I have to do is say "Captn' Crunch in the house".
