Erin: "Mom? Can Rachel and I get something to eat before we come home from school? We're starving!"You know? I really thought I had already fed them yesterday? Maybe it's time to increase their feed? Maybe feed them twice a day instead of once? They're good kids so I guess I'll be more generous.
Me: "NO! Absolutely NOT! I want you starving when you get home!"
Erin: "Mom?"
Me: "Yes dear?"
Erin: "I may have to eat you!"
Me: "Naw. I wouldn't taste very good. I'm a tough old bird."
Erin: "Then I'll feed you to the cats!"
Me: "Okay. I guess you guys can go get something to eat."

I laughed so hard when I read this. I swear my boys would stand at a trough and eat all day if I let them.
ReplyDeleteGlad to know it's not only our kids! Although I wonder if girls eat less than boys? I've heard that but am pretty sure that doesn't apply to our kids!
