Sensitive Ponytail Boy

I took the kids to the mall tonight since Hubs had to work late. I never know how it’s going to go with the two of them, but tonight they were on their best behavior. As a reward, I gave them three dollars in quarters for the mall “rides.” Mimi spent her last .50 to buy Wixie some Mike and Ikes. These occasional random acts of kindness from her really kill me. Then, when they were dumping their trays after dinner, I saw Wixie pause a little and shuffle his feet, head down. I asked him what was wrong and he just shrugged. He shuffled along some more until I asked him again. He finally stopped and said, “I miss drinky.”
