Okay, so starting today I'm quite positive my kids are going to label me the meanest mom in the world, but I don't care! I am fed up with my kids NEVER eating. Before their food is even on the table I frequently hear, "I don't like this." To which I reply, "How in the world do you know you don't like it when you haven't even tried it!"
So both girls asked for breakfast this morning, and I gave them what THEY wanted, halfway through eating they both decide they are done and don't want anymore. I'm furious and fuming (that may be because I had a rough nights go with Grant...felt like I had a newborn again.) I threatened the girls like I always do that they would not be getting any snacks until lunch time! It is a new week and boy are they in for a surprise because this mean mom is sticking to her guns! So it is now 8:29 a.m. and Jessi wants a snack, she is hungry....NOWAY, you are? (like the sarcasm?) Sorry there little girl you have about 3 hours until you can eat again. NO neighbors, grammies, or Nanas will be coming to their rescue! If they don't eat what is given so be it...strave! They will learn hopefully sooner vs. later. Please tell me other moms have this same issue!
