The Ice Cream Truck

The music from the ice cream truck. The kids can hear it from blocks away! They come running in yelling "The ice cream truck!" I remember the same feeling when I was kid. I loved getting ice cream from the ice cream truck. I also remember being upset when we couldn't get anything. Any time I can, I allow the kids to get something. It's kinda hard during the summer when it comes through almost everyday. It can be especially hard with our ice cream truck. The prices are horrible! You pay for one popsicle what you could get a whole box for at the store. The other problem is the driver. They are just not kid friendly. I went out with Jazz once and he had a cigarette hanging out of his mouth while he helped us. Yeah! Nice! My neighbor refuses to support them and her kids aren't ever allowed to get anything. While I don't like supporting them, I love the memories for my kids. So, when they hear the music and come running, I grab my wallet and smile. Why? Because I'm making my kids smile and that is enough for me!
