I’d say “great mom” you could adopt me anytime. I’m sure my kids would concur!

Alright… the most ridiculous thing about this is that by the time dinner was over, my pathetic short term memory allowed me to forget all about “lunch” until after I let them have a little ice cream for dessert. LOL

hahaha! I’m sure your poll numbers with your kids went way up. Besides, that’s dairy, throw a banana in for fruit, granola in for carbs and fiber and plop some peanut butter on for protein and you have a well rounded “meal”.

Must microwave to melt the peanut butter first.
As I was telling Meg, I did many things between this meal and dinner so only after I let them have ice cream for dessert did I realize what I’d done… 😀

Mine are usually quite good. Though my son is mellow and my daughter is more restless… so the most frequent issue is the two of them arguing… which is quite normal at this stage. (Can’t wait for the teenage years… :/)
