Slow Food

Wednesday, March 06, 2013

Once a week my mom takes care of my girls from morning until their naptime. She always buys them lunch, usually from Panda Express, KFC, or "old" McDonald's. Because of various appointments we had yesterday, we were all in the car together at lunchtime. My mom and the girls were talking about where to eat when one of my daughters said, "Panda is a grandma fing (thing). Old McDonald's is a grandma fing."

I said, "Fast food is a grandma thing." emoticon emoticon

My daughter replied, "And slow food is a mommy fing." emoticon


I was sooooooooooooooo proud! Of course, she has no idea about the slow food movement being that she's only 3.5. But still! It's, at the very least, laying the groundwork for healthy habits and positive associations when she's older.

    I LOVE that!! Its one of those things you'll want to write down so you don't forget it - when she is older she'll love hearing it! How do I know? Because just Sunday my grandsons and I had a fun time talking about things that happened when they were too young to remember! Those times are what make life so special!!

Fun Photo #3

Here's a photo of one of my daughters experimenting with a different way of riding a tricycle.



She actually did this for a while and had a lot of fun making herself go around in circles. I love her fearlessness and ability to explore everything.

    Curiosity is something we lose as we get older. Thanks for reminding me that curiosity is good.

Here's a picture I took hanging out with my girls in the backyard on a "winter" day.


I love that my dog "photo bombed" the shot. :)
