What happens when you are only 2 of 5 kids at a restaurant? You actually get to order a soft drink!
I ordered my weekly Diet Coke. Turkey is putting names on Cokes now. It's fun to see what you'll get. Mine said, "My love."
Big Ben was a hungry boy. He put away his cheese and tomato pide, plus salad, plus bread and dip, plus bulgar, plus part of the eggplant meal Miss Midd and I split!
It was a fun mix. Boy, 2 kids are quiet compared to 5!

I remember those times when there was just one or two. Maverick said one time about going with me by himself . . . "I got to get the expensive hamburger since I was the only one."
As for Ben . . . Mercy! :) The best is yet to come with that one. I never eat all my food until the boys are finished because even though they get plenty, they are never full!! I have to pretend like I've had all I want, and I usually have, or they won't let me give them mine. They have a real thing about not taking anything away from Mom. Sometimes it takes a lot of convincing but I know they are still hungry. They can't hide it! :)
Growing up my dad did the same thing with us. He never took seconds until we finished eating then he would eat everything left on the table. I didn't realize why until I became a parent. I thought he wasn't hungry, he just didn't want to waste food. :)
Sounds like you had a really good time!

For the first time ever, I see a slight resemblance to Ross, in Ben . . . It's more an aura than physical looks. :)

Happy Birthday from Istanbul! Sounds like you had a great one!
Praying this year is full of the Lord's grace and mercy for you and your family!
