Whatever works

Getting your headstrong 23-month-old to eat breakfast - at the table no less - and when she's got a cold - isn't always easy. Especially when Mommy also has a cold and just realized she can't "call in sick" anymore (bummer!) So, sometimes sick Mommies and toddlers just have to do whatever works to get through the day. On occasion, that may mean Mommy opens a bottle of wine just a tad before 5 (try noon!) or that our lovely little toddler eats her breakfast off the kitchen floor. Yes, Evie decided eating cereal off the floor was a much better alternative to eating at the table with Mommy. And Mommy decided 5 minutes of peace and quiet was worth the potential health hazzard!! Whatever works!
