One day I will wake up and be fully rested with the linger of pleasant dreams. While I effortlessly go down the stairs I will look over to the the table and see a bounty of delicious breakfast foods. All the kids will be waiting patiently as I scoop up my favorite iced coffee from the counter and site down in the chair marked Best Mom in the World. HAHAHA HEHEHE Everyone says please and thank you with big adoring smiles and when I look over to my tiniest eater I see a nice clean face. And he's using his fork and napkin........ A Mom can dream......right? For the most part my lovely daydream is true. Except my coffee is not always waiting for me and my tiniest eater has food smeared from one end of his face to the other. He does know how to use a fork I just think he prefers a more hands on approach. Will this ever change????? Lord, help us!!! HAHAHAHA I laugh only because even though it is embarrassing when we have company or out at a restaurant he is our little guy. And he is trying hard to fit in to a world that He thinks is doing things wrong. I can't imagine what it must feel like for him everyday. Every meal we go over the same rules, the same suggestions, the same pleading. And every meal we all get the same look from Kaden the same responses and the same mess all over the place. This is a process and we are all willing to go thru it.
I love him so much and I'm thankful that he is able to eat with us, I know there are many parents that don't have that luxury. I try and remember that every time I feel like I can't take any more. I caught Mahala rubbing food all over her face a few weeks ago. I was like what are you DOING!!!! She smiled and said she wanted to understand what all the fuss was about. She said it was actually pretty soothing. HAHAHA Go figure......maybe instead of getting aggravated when Kaden eats like that we should all do it with him.
