A Peaceful Dinner at Bob Evans






Well, tonight John, Jenna, Alyssa and I headed over to Bob Evans for, what seems to have become, our usual Thursday night out dinner. Jenna was in a great mood and excited about getting pancakes, of course! Alyssa was her cheerful, smiley, cooing self. She is just such a happy baby! We get there and it is always such a task for those hostesses to set up our table with a sling and high chair. You think it wouldn't be too complicated, right? WRONG! We finally get to sit down, and of course Jenna starts crying for every color of crayon so John gets up to get the other two missing crayon colors. I get Alyssa out of her chair, and, for her, life is great! She loves the fans and lights. Jenna then wants the dessert menu, the table tent and everything else! She begins crying for the sugar packets, pumpkin bread and butter. She drinks all of her chocolate milk in a few minutes, and then has to have water with her dinner. It seems like an eternity for our meals to come. My wildfire chicken salad came so I put Alyssa back down, and she started crying. John, of course, is getting more and more frustrated-not really patient, if you know what I mean! We manage to eat, and then after all of that hard work and drama, we reward ourselves with a piece of apple dumpling pie a la mode!
Thank goodness tomorrow is Friday!
