One night this week, HG and I met our friends, Amy and Mary Claire and Ginna and Sallie Key, at Chick-fil-A for a girls’ night out. We didn’t realize that it was Family Night, complete with Bingo, a balloon man, and {unfortunately} the cow mascot. When we saw him walking out, I think all of us moms were momentarily frozen, unsure of how the girls were going to react. I have to say that we had the complete spectrum- Sallie Key was excited and brave, Mary Claire was terrified and trembling, and Helen Grace vacillated between hiding under the table and trying to make MC feel better by repeating, “It’s just a man in there.” When push came to shove, Sallie Key was the only one that would go close to the cow, and after she got her hug, we kept shoo-ing the cow away from our general vicinity. The girls were really excited about their ladybug balloon bracelets and the to-go ice cream that rounded out the night!
Sallie Key, Mary Claire, Helen Grace- that’s a lot of names for three little girls!
