Who’s judging you.

Kids eating fries? Not my kids!

I could not believe that people gave their kids burgers and fries, or even ice-cream and cake… or even took them out to restaurants… of course this was before I had kids!

Talk about judgmental… Thinking that I would be so different from all these other moms who obviously didn’t care about the health of their kids. And if I ever saw kids in a restaurant or the mall throwing a tantrum… well, lets just say that ‘my’ kids would never behave like that!

Fast forward to today… feeding my son ice-cream for lunch while at the mall. Although they were pretty well behaved, like every other mom, I have come to realize that to keep your sanity… you just cannot sweat the little things.

In general, my kids eat well at home… they love broccoli (I think that most kids do)… so fries and ice-cream at the mall does not really worry me much any more… right now I am trying to figure out how to get my 3 year old to stop sucking his thumb, and my ‘almost’ 2 year old to stop sucking everyone’s socks!

At least both the newborn and I enjoy when he is sucking his pacifier.
