Holding Back

With no fat on her plate,
She would have lost weight,
But she couldn’t give up her sweet cola.
Funky Little Fellows
On Tuesday night we had put the boys to bed and all was well until we heard Aron let out a blood curdling scream. I ran upstairs expecting to comfort a bad dream or something but as I got to his crib I smelled something and it clicked in my mind what it…
