This morning Coop and I were running late, so I took him by McDonalds to grab a sausage biscuit. We had to wait in line for a little while of course. I mean, it is McDonalds. And then we pulled up to order. A man came over the speaker and took our order and then I pulled up to give the car behind us their turn. Coop was in the back seat and just as innocently said, “Mommy, can you put money in that box (the microphone box where I ordered our food) and let that man out of there?” I laughed so hard. I told him that the man wasn’t in the box and that I would show him where he was when we got up to the window. So we pulled up to the window to pay and I proceeded to share what had just happened with the attendant and the “man in the box”. Needless to say, McDonalds hit the floor laughing and Coop got a Happy Meal toy out of the deal. Children are great, and that made my day ……
