While on a search for candy molds to put on Josiah’s birthday cupcakes last week, we were able to travel thirty minutes away and close to Mark’s work. Since we can’t actually go to Mark’s work, he met us for lunch at a local barbecue place. The kids had fun with this special treat.

They took the opportunity to read the signs all posted on the walls (typically for locally owned barbecue joints). I pointed to the “exit” sign and asked Liam what it said. He knows the exit signs just from sheer memorization…not reading.

He looked up at it and in all seriousness said,”Dat says, Do. Not. Explode.”
