I didn't realise part 3 until I fetched them and started giving them lunch.
A lot of you have seen my kids in action and they're really good eaters. I know that.
Still... the fussiness factor is starting to creep in and I'm not sure if it's because I'm at home and I like to do their lunches myself so there's familiarity, or just if it's the age.
However, I don't want this and I don't want that is NONSENSE. And recent.
The bananas were going soft and there was one naartjie from the old batch so I gave each child one half of each fruit.
Well, you'd have thought I was killing them.
The whining. The moaning. The tantrums. The shouting (from me).
I said, "that's IT! From now onwards there will be none of this nonsense."
I then told them (again) how there are big problems and small problems in the world.
A big problem is whether or not you have food to eat. A small problem is which fruit you're going to have.
What is this? Yes, it's a very small problem.
And how there are Very Sick Kids at a hospital a mere 10 km away who don't even have BEDS, and here I have kids moaning about only having half a fruit.
No, Babies, this is unacceptable.
They all 3 (Nanny S included) stood there staring at me.
But I had no more nonsense with lunch after that.
I do think I'll let Nanny S handle lunch from now onwards. I might just feel a tad strongly about this.
More to the point, will you please think about donating something to the project?
This is one of my favourite things about blogging - how the Internets :) can do good (SO MUCH GOOD) in the world just by us bloggers raising awareness.
Practically speaking, if you don't know Louisa, you can Paypal me and I will EFT the money to her.
Otherwise, tell me about some of your food woes!
