Today at lunch I heard my 7 year old say to his little 5 year old brother, "Let me know when you're all done lunch."
My 5 year old asked, "Why?"
"Because I'm going to eat your lunch when I'm done with mine."
You'd think I don't feed them enough! Then when I asked my 7 year old if he was still hungry and if I should prepare him something else to eat he said, "no."
Some days you just can't win.
Did I mention that there are only 23 days until school starts?
About Me
- Cookie
- I am a domestic goddess with 2 adorable angels who do everything they’re supposed to do. I vacation in the Bahamas on my own private island and sip Margaritas all day... Then I wake up and realize that I'm actually the maid, the gourmet chef, the chauffeur, the gardener, the butler, the banker, personal shopper and everything else my family needs. The Bahamas are actually the Seattle suburbs (at least no chance of a sunburn here!) but I still enjoy the occasional margarita. Sometimes it really is all about how you look at things ;)

Your 7 year old sounds like a character! :)
At least he's trying not to be wasteful. My 7 year old only volunteers to eat her little sister's snacks and broccoli. She's on her own with everything else.
wow 23 days until school starts? are you counting then down with joy and glee or with sadness in your heart?? too cute what your 7 y/o said; you can never win though, LOL (get used to it, just gets worse the older they get :)
betty
I'm guessing a sister would likely never say anythign like that to her sister or her brother. Now something like, "can I paint your toenails?" yes
If your 7 year old is offering to "help" finish a meal now, I wonder what will happen when he's a teenager!?
Be careful- Mr. Seven may be beginning the long, over-eater's road to gluttony n obesity!
I pick food off my grandkids plates sometimes cause they rarely eat it, n it gets tossed! That's alot of wasted money on food...
When my oldest bro was a teen, he used to drink everyone's abandoned champagne at weddings!
Cute post, Cookie from Washington.... Thanks for visiting my blog. We are back from vacation --and had a wonderful time. I am enjoying reading your posts. Please come back to my blog anytime.
You should write a book about what kids say.... They are just so precious...Are you sure you are feeding them enough????? ha ha ha

Oh my that sounds familiar. Fourteen days here... for Mister Man anyway! Gotta love the contrarian nature of them. But of course we love them anyway :)
lol! I think the grass is defintely greener on the other side.
10 days for me!
You got a human trash disposal in the making. We shouldn't be wasting food in times like these. Be proud!
