Caffeine High

The kids have been begging me to buy hot cocoa. A few weeks ago when I was at the store I noticed that the Swiss Miss hot cocoa was on sale. It was buy one get one free. A lot of the varieties were sold out. However there were still some boxes of what I thought was the regular hot cocoa. I was obviously looking at the picture not the words. After giving it to my children twice a day for 2 or 3 days in a row I finally read the box. "With as much caffeine as a cup of coffee." That explained everything! I couldn't figure out why Kaden wasn't falling asleep at night when he normally was asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow. I was exhausted trying to keep up with Kaylee and couldn't get her to go to sleep either. I just assumed she was excited for Christmas. I stopped giving them the hot cocoa and everything returned to normal.

I think that I would probably do something like this especially if it was a buy one get one free. I am glad you figured it out before they drank it all. :) I love the Christmas decor and the baking classes, how fun!
