Most Awesomest Mom Ever!

My son said to me, as we got in the car for the grocery store, that he wanted to go back to shcool. So I took them to Burger King to play with some other kids for a while. It was the best idea I have had all break.
The kids are playing now. We are one of three families playing in the Playground area and no two of us are the same ethnicity. It's a beautiful thing. The woman in the corner across from me is nursing her infant and I applauded her, quietly, from my seat. The Father of the other children recently bounded in, caught one of his four daughter with his eyes and  bellowed "ten more minutes then we're rollin'!" She turned and matched his bravado to her sisters, "Ten minutes! Then we roll!" They've been running up and down with my two for at least ten minutes now. I'm glad they haven't left yet. They are all having so much fun together!
Soon enough I will tear them away to the boring isles of produce, dairy and dry goods. It's sure to be full of threats and whining and when we get home, we will all need naps. But, right now, in this last 5 minutes, I'm "the most awesomest mom ever" and the kids are sweaty and smiling.
