Our children never cease to amaze me. Now, they are 17, 21 and 22. All are in college (the 17 year old is primarily completing her senior year of high school), but we have the BLESSING of them all still living at home. We spend a lot of time together at home, church and school. But despite all of this familiarity, they sometimes still surprise me. In Bible school this year, we had LOTS of juice drinks--Sunny D's and Capri Suns. I don't usually get these things because I think of them as younger kids' drinks, and I usually like to get Hawaiian Punch. We had some Capri Suns left over--tons of them, in fact. Our "kids" have relished having those to drink after Church. Since they enjoyed them so much, I decided to get some for the fridge here at home. Our local grocery store had them at $3.49 or so the other day. At that price, we needed to drink them carefully and sparingly. But I thought I could find them cheaper elsewhere. We happened to stop by Kroger the other day and lo and behold, they were $1. 49 a pack--all of the flavors. I loaded up the cart, and there are 3 very happily hydrated young adults in our home! Haha! I love it. They act like those little pouches of juice are the latest, greatest thing since TANG! They sit around and talk about which flavors are the best, and we have speculated that some of the flavors are marketed toward certain regions ("mountain cooler" and "pacific cooler"). This is the greatest thing! I have trouble getting Dear Daughter to drink enough. Dear Son 2 is trying to cut back on his diet Dr. Pepper habit, and Dear Son 1 doesn't drink nearly enough either. I am so tickled.
