Today I was out w/ my daughter and I asked her what she wanted for lunch. Her reply....A salad at your school mommy. Sure my school has a pizza hut and burger king but she likes to go and share a SALAD w/ her mommy.
Knowing that she will have developed healthy eating habits and ways to cope w/ emotions as to not turn to food for comfort makes THIS all worth it
The strictures, the hurling, and the saggy skin makes it all worth it so she does not have to endure the torment of obesity. Also sometimes for a "special treat" we get a fruit cup at the grocery store to share instead of a cadbury egg and chocolate reese easter egg calling to me:
Here is how it goes:
EGG: Howdy havent seen you since last year...miss me, your old buddy?
Reese Egg: Not nearly as she missed me. I'm going home or should I say to the car to be devoured in one delicious bite.
EGG: No I am going, You are around all year in different shapes and sizes. I am special for I come only at Easter.
They were still arguing when we left the check out line w/ our salad and box of crystal light (I may have a panic attack if I am w/o cl).
BTW Crystal Light is the only drink I've had to night, just incase you were wondering.
