My kids are awesome...

...for lots of reasons, but today it's because they are such good eaters! To my friends with no kids, you think, eh, so what?! But to the rest of you, you know what I'm talking about. We are so lucky that the girls eat pretty much anything and without much struggle. Of course, now that I have blogged about this, that will change.

Anyway, Olivia prompted me to write this because she just came in the office with a hunk of leftover tri-tip from the fridge (dinner a couple of nights ago). Apparently she needs a little snack before bed. She says, "Mom, can I eat this." Of course she can. So I say, "Yes" and try to convince her to just eat the hunk cold out of the fridge. O says, "No, mom, it is supposed to be eaten warm. Can you please heat it up?" Earlier today we had Subway and she gets her sandwich with everything on it including "those hot things that daddy likes" (pepperoncini). Oh, I do not let her get jalapenos.

Victoria is not quite as easy as Olivia, but runs a close second. There are no peppperoncinis in her world, but she was a little jealous of that hunk of beef that O just ate.

Haiti Earthquake

My friend Heather sent me this link to her friend, Haylene's, web site. Haylene's husband, Pierre, is Haitian and his family and their town has been devastated by the earthquake.
