No, my children do NOT drink soda!!

You can't tell can you? What that really is is colored water put in a Arby's cup so that they think they're drinking soda. Ha, I wish! We have tried it though, lol! Who knew that they would immediately be able to tell the difference and ask to drink ours??

You see, Roy and I have quite enjoyed Diet Coke as our 'drink of choice' over the past few years. We have, however, drastically cut back by replacing 'the drink' with Fortune Delight and Calli Tea made by Sunrider (a company that we love). But every once in a while we get this thirst that cannot be quenced by anything but 'the drink'. It probably happens more often than we would like to admit, and unfortunately our children share our affinity, or shall we say addiction, (gasp) for it!! We try to hide 'the drink' or to just get one when the kids are sleeping or when we are on a date. But inevitably they catch us and we are forced to either deal with a crying fit or.... share.

We don't like crying fits.

One of these days we hope to have the strength to 'just say no' 100% of the time, for the benefit of both us and our offspring. But until then....these pictures speak 1000 words!!
