Me: What do you want for breakfast?
Kate: Steak.
Me: I don't have any steak, sorry.
Kate: Ugh. But we just want Steak. (referring to herself and Jane)
Me: Well I don't have steak. How about some toast and eggs?
Kate: No. I want a grilled ham and cheese sandwich.
Me: Ok. I can do that with a berry smoothie.
Kate: Thanks MOM!! (big smile)
[I'm glad I had something she wanted for BREAKFAST.... sheesh!]

i love that little "ugh." life is hard.
so i always told myself i'd never be a short-order cook in my home. but tonight, one wanted oatmeal, one wanted eggs, and one wanted french toast. all for dinner, of course. social norms are irrelevant to these little people. and i cave all the time, b/c of that innate parental desire to avoid starvation among my offspring.
Truly her father's daughter. Glad she didn't ask for duck :0)
