The Smithsonian just ran an article noting that in addition to delaying the onset of Alzheimers!, reducing the risk of skin cancer!, and generally fighting crime!, a coupla cups of coffee improve one's verbal processing. I should probably wax more poetic about the truth of this (to demonstrate my improved! verbal! processing!), since my kids call me The Coffee Zombie (affectionately... mostly). However, we are in a different, darker red portion of my day in beverages.
So I'll just say: Amen. Caffeine saves.

You forgot about diabetes - coffee apparently helps fight that too! <3, your most caffeinated sibling ;-)
Some of the first words your nieces put together were "Mommy Coffee" - I am in complete agreement and sympathy.
I've related the story to family a painful number of times, but when my son was very small, he wanted me to get up, so he came in and told me "coffee ready."
It wasn't.
I don't quite remember what happened (I know - how conveeeeenient), but I do know he's never, ever, ever done that again.
