I like coffee....

I am a coffee drinker.  

I have a hard core coffee machine (a Cuisinart Grind and Brew) that automatically grinds my beans right before brewing.  I use only the darkest, richest whole beans in my coffee.  (When I am not preggo) I drink coffee all day--I like decaf, too.  I love coffee.  I used to drink coffee with my parents in the morning before high school.  One of the greatest times I had with my dad was buying him a cup of Starbucks and drinking it together while talking about life.  My best friends and I used to meet up for...coffee (or tea for them).  At my going away party for my job in Baltimore, they gave me a Starbucks giftcard.  I married a non-coffee drinker and converted him (applause, please).  

I am a devout coffee drinker.  

But, now, I have a toddler.

I used to be able to leave my coffee cup on the table when it was almost finished...now I have to be a little wiser.  I noticed a coffee stain on my son's shirt, and I thought....hmm...what is that about.  I said, "Emmanuel, let me smell your breath."  He smiled and ran.  I caught him, and well, 

I think Emmanuel is a coffee drinker, too.
