Chocolate to the rescue!

I admit it.  I love chocolate.  It doesn't matter what kind, or in what form, I love my chocolate.  Why am I saying this in a blog about being a mom?  Because sometimes life is stressful and overwhelming and even maddening and nothing helps a mood better than a good dose of chocolate!  I have a stash in my bedroom, the hall closet, hidden in the kitchen and downstairs.  Sometimes I even share  :)  My children love to tell the story of a time when their mom (that would be me) was having to deal with a particularly difficult visitor.  This frustrated mom calmly excused herself and went into another room.  When one of the children went to find her, he found her sitting on her bed chomping into a giant Hershey Kiss like it was an apple.  What's your stress reliever?  Make sure to have it readily available because you never know when you're going to need it!
