i had my payback! My apology to my mom!

First off... I AM SORRY MOM!!!! I AM SORRY FOR THE BRAT I WAS WHEN I DIDN'T GET WHAT I WANTED!!!!!!

Ok, now that, that is off my chest...i got my payback the other night at McDonalds. The lights were out at home so we went to get dinner. It was just me and the kids. McDonalds currently has My Little Ponies so we had to go there. Brooke has been wanting the purple one "Star Song". That is her favorite pony. So while inside ordering i ask the lady to please give us the purple one. She can't find one and asks if there is another she would like. I say the orange one (Scootaloo) since we don't have that one. We get to the table Brooke opens her bag and that's it. She screamed bloody murder and the tears just started to pour out. You could not get her to be quite. She did not want that orange pony. The people all around just stopped and stared. I could not get her to calm down. This fantastic lady who works for McDonalds went into the stock room and found the purple one and gave it to Brooke. Brooke wanted to keep both ponies then, but i made her choose. So, we now have the McDonalds StarSong...from the temper tantrum from hell. Heck, a man even gave Brooke money that we didn't know so she would feel better.

So, i normally don't let my kids act like that and then let someone give them what they wanted. They need to know in life you don't always get what you want, but that girl was heartbroken...so i let her have the pony.

It was quite embarressing though. And i do recall throwing hissy fits in the mall when my mom wouldn't buy me a shirt i wanted. So...once again, i am sorry mom!
