Have I failed my children?
This weekend we were in charge of dessert for our small group. I made a pumpkin pie for the adults, and bought ice cream cones for the kids (similar to drumsticks, but a different brand). My kids simply LOVE desserts (I mean who doesn't!) and they happily finished (mostly...I am a little more lenient when it comes to small group) their meal to gain a treat. They dove into their ice cream treat, but about halfway into his treat Corey looks up at me and asks me a question. A question that has me wondering if I have truly failed my children. "Mom," he says, "is this something we can eat?" I look down and see that he is pointing to the cone! Can it be that my child is three and this is the FIRST time he has experienced ice cream in a cone? Yes...yes it is his first ice cream cone and yes, I think I have failed them.
