Mommy and Me

“Post is sponsored by Steak N’ Shake, all opinions are my own.”

Being a parent is hard. I feel like some days with the homework, after school activities, there is no time to get to know my sweet girl. Can we petition that there is entirely too much homework in first grade? I mean come on, it is a little ridiculous. But nonetheless we do it, but by Friday I am as ready as she is to put the week behind us. I jump for joy when I realize its Friday and there is no more no homework for three days.

 

I miss the days where Hannah and I had all the time in the world together. I find as she gets older and we get busier that I have to purposeful about the time we spend together. I miss her being this little. (sigh, my Mama heart breaks) I want to know everything about her, her opinions, what her friends and her discuss at lunch. So we take time out and go to lunch together just us. There are many places we can go, but the place she chooses much of the time is Steak and Shake.

 

She is so funny; she says that Steak and Shake is cool looking place with all the old stuff. She’s referring to its diner like feel. I love Steak and Shake because of the wonderful prices for me on the $4 menu and their kids menu for Hannah is perfect. Hannah likes her cheeseburgers plain, where as I like everything on mine. It’s our own version of a Mommy and Me meal.

 

We sit in our booth like two old friends and talk about anything and nothings. She asks if we can take snapchat pictures, and desperately wants to see any new filters snapchat may have. She thinks it’s insanely funny to shoot her straw paper at me. This is a trick she learned from her daddy, thanks, honey. LOL. But we sit there and enjoy our food, and its always good. I can count on my food being the same every time I order it and that’s what keeps me coming back time and time again. I like consistency.

 

What makes the meal even better is Steak and Shake is their current promotion is All Day Every Day Kids Eat Free. For every $9 spent you get one free kids plate for children under 12. Wow. Not many restaurants are offering a kids eat free deal these days. If we come to Steak and Shake as a family, we don’t have to worry about it costing us a fortune. Find and Visit Steak and Shake and try out their food, take the kids and let them eat free!
