Milo Drinking Days/Nights
I was in the kitchen the other night making myself a cup of Milo when my son came to me asking me for a cup of his own.
Husband ("H") being the concerned daddy that he is, started to lecture that the Milo is too 'heaty' to be consumed by a little boy like him. H further added that if he consumes the amount of Milo like I do everyday he will have nose bleed coupled with the effect that he will not be able to 'shit'. Ha ha, crazy but true. I do consume a lot of Milo. I have Milo for breakfast. I used to have Milo during my tea break and a cup of Milo before I sleep. Ok ok, I know it's bad but I'm really tring to cut down to once a day only now (unless if my tummy starts grumbling about missing her best sweet brown liquid friend).
Next ...
Of course my son would not take a 'NO' for an answer and insisted on saying why do Mummy get to drink Milo instead of him.
Yes I gave in and made him a cup of Milo.
*His cup of Milo is in his favourite cup of course (he's crazy for Thomas (The Tank Engine) & His Friends). He did not finished his cup of Milo because H scolded him. Drama!
Anyway ......
All these brought me back to the memories when my own mother used to make cups of Milo for my siblings and I. She will make us our Milo, lined them up at the dining table and ask us to consume the piping hot Milo before bed (on every school night). I really cherish memories like these and I hope my son will too one day. I love you son :)
