Good eats

This is boring but I'm trying to keep updating...
I just want to make this entry in case something changes so I will always remember. My son Carter has turned into the best eater!!! I was distraught for a couple of years on the bad eating or not eating. I have always been flabbergasted on the way some kids eat anything and everything! Why is it as mothers and grandmothers we care so much about whether our kids eat? I have tried to be laid back and patient and it is paying off. I keep noticing Carter is willing to at least try new things. Well, tonight was very unusual; I made some very yummy and very spicy chili. Spicy as in my nose was running! Carter ate it and said raise your hand if this was the best supper ever. Freaky kid! Cade will follow his brothers lead sometimes. One of Carters new favorite things is cucumbers. Which he has always hated before. This proves that you should pay no attention to what kids say they like and keep giving it to them. I had decided that was nonsense after many rejections but it turns out that kids are freaks.
So what is the most weird food that your kids like?

As you know my kids are freaks in the respect that they like almost anything. I think some of the strangest things are that Summer really likes peanuts. She carries around a basket that has peanuts in it and she thinks they are a special treat. Eva loves cottage cheese. She can down a whole carton in one sitting.

I'm glad Carter is eating better. When he gets to be a teenager you're going to wish he didn't eat that much!

Hey Steph! Your kids are the ones I was thinking about. I have burned in my memory Eva chowing on an egg salad sandwich.

I can't say my kids eat anything unusual but they do eat most things I put on their plates!
