This morning, S took his dad by the hand and said, "Come on Dad, we're having a party," and I said, "Is there going to be hot tea there," and Dad said, "S, is it a tea party," and S said, "No, it's a bumpy chips and popcorn chicken party".
When I was still single and watching other people's children, I used to listen with disdain as they worried because little X wouldn't eat what they fixed or anything at all and then everything, and I used to think, oh, why are you worrying so much??--Little X will eat when he's ready--It's not like he's going to starve himself---So, now that I'm mother to 3 1/2 year old S and 18 month old C and they won't eat anything that I fix for the rest of the family, everything that comes within reach, or only popcorn chicken, bumpy chips, and grapes, depending on the day---I understand-So, sorry parents of little X for being such a know it all, even if it was in my head.
