Grocery with the kids

When they were younger, my kids would beg me so they can  tag along with wherever I go. Now that they are older, it's the other way around. I am now the one asking them to accompany me whenever I go out, especially when I go to the supermarket. They would even try to point at one another whenever I ask. Poor me :-(

Even my hubs do not enjoy going to the grocery. It's a given that in our household, hubby should be spared of this duty. Typical of a man who even hates shopping.

So the only way to lure them to tag along with me is to have another activity other than doing the grocery. Like dining out, arcade and then the supermarket will be our last stop. Just like the day when these photos taken at Centris Walk -- they had a their favorite fro-yo,  had their time at the playground and to just linger around.


Oh well, I guess I just have to be contented and stop whining about. I just can't help but compare myself to them especially my teenage girl, cause I can still remember how much I love to accompany my mom during her trips to the supermarket or even to the palengke.

Now, I know what to expect when my son grows older. My husband, too, doesn't like to go with me to the grocery. He'll either go to a gadgets shop or check what movies that are currently showing in the mall. My son likes to go with me to the grocery too, but I usually find a way to do the grocery shopping alone. When he's not with me, I'm done with the groceries in 1.5 hours.
