A Walk in the Park

Managed to go to two grocery stores today.  And each boy went with me on one trip.  Kind of awesome that they'll still go shopping for groceries with me at 15 and 18.  I dig it.  Course one wanted some "say so" power about what I bought for the week, and the other wanted to be allowed to drive the car in a big empty parking lot on the way home...but hey, they wanted to go with me. 

Anyway, my kids know I'm totally uninterested in finding a parking spot close to the entrance.  It's really not even on my priority list, so when I parked today, here's how it went.


Little guy:  "Really, mom?  Here?"

Me:  "Gosh, I remember you used to really like long walks with me in the park."

Little guy:  "But this is the PARKing LOT."


I suppose he has a point.  I also suppose the looooong walk was not at all unbearable.
