Lauren and Emily love the fatty parts of meat. We discourage it as much as we can, but there's a limit to how much Dan and I can do. What's really bad is that Lauren will sometimes only eat the fat and neglect the meat. After one particular episode, Annika said, "It was like a palace of disgusting meat" in describing the mound of roast Lauren had chewed and then regurgitated back onto her plate. Yeah, I know--TMI.
And we're working on training our children to not eat dinner before a)we pray and b)Dan and I are also seated at the table. Believe it or not, it's working better on the younger children. A few weeks ago, I had this conversation with Megan:
Megan: Mom, can we eat yet since we haven't prayed?
Mom: No, not yet.
Megan then spit out a mouthful of cole slaw onto her plate.
And a pic of Megan's latest musical instrument. If you ask her, I'm sure she'll tell you she's pretty good...
In case you're wondering, it's a teapot.
