Mommy Moment

Wednesday, July 13, 2011

I have to share the conversation I can with my child (3) this morning:

Abby: Mommy I want something in the frigerajer (refrigerator)
Me: What?
Abby: ummmm Dip
Me: Dip? What kinda dip?
Abby: I want chips and dip
Me: (thinking, um we don't keep chips and dip in this house) You mean you want pretzels (the closest thing to a chip I can think of)
Ab: No....pick me up and I show you
Me: (I pick her up and she points to the HUMMUS!)

My child wanted hummus and pita "chips" (they are really like toasted pieces of pita bread)! She thinks those are CHIPS AND DIP!!! Halelloo! I'm so excited that my kids are tagging right along with the healthy food thing. It makes my life so much easier! Now I know it's a little weird for anyone to be eating hummus and pita for breakfast but who cares? She's eating something better than some sort of sugary cereal! OK just had to share a little woo hoo mommy moment!
