tricks after treats


Trick or Treat?? At our house, it was tricks after treats...
Okay, all you professional parents, here comes your laugh...
We let Lucy have a super fun Halloween. Yep, we let her open and eat on any candy she wanted, why not, it's just one fun night right? I knew the sugar was flowing through her veins when I saw her doing a jumping dance combo move. Bedtime was around the corner and Lucy seemed unusually calm, drinking her normal cup of milk and having a few expected silly moments.
...okay, here is where our trick comes.....
Lucy yells down from her bed for another cup of milk and we feel sorry for her, wondering if she has too much sugar in her belly and needs something to settle it.........Yes, we took her another cup of milk.....
.....YES, it came up five minutes later.So, after the vomit was cleaned off every square inch of Lucy and her bed, new sheets on and teeth brushed, she finally got to sleep after what I thought might be her favorite holiday, until the last five minutes.
I can hear my sister tell me, "milk is not good on the sugar belly."
Oh well, live and learn.
