Party of 6?

I think this was one of my posts that never made it out of my head.
We stopped at a restaurant on the drive between AZ and MS. We now have 6 in our family, children ages 7, 5, 2 and 4 months. We were charged the automatic gratuity for large parties. It wouldn't have been so bad if the service had been great but that sort of irked me since Rebecca did not even eat at the restaurant. I didn't even nurse her in the restaurant because I was uncomfortable with the stares from the four large men sitting at the next table.
Oh c'est la vie.
