One day my children will wake and I will say, "time to eat," and they will run the table and gobble up all their breakfast. Both children will be excited to eat the entire bowl of cereal or yogurt or whatever it is for breakfast mommy serves and they will get down from the table and play and have a good morning.
The clock will strike noon or eleven or whatever time it is we eat lunch that day and the kids will sit at the table and eat their sandwiches and chips and cookies and drink their milk and get down from the table and read books and take their naps with full bellies.
At dinner time the twins will race to their high chairs and devour their entrees and veggies and save just a tiny room in their stomachs for dessert, which mommy will gladly serve them since thy cleaned their plates, both kids.
Then right before dinner I will hear my little girl ask for a snack because her three meals that day were not enough and she wants to eat more. Mommy will cut up veggies and fruit and give containers of yogurt and glasses of milk and watch as both twins have their last bit of food for the night.
Yes, this may be wishful thinking even for a mom with kids that are eaters, but hey, why can't I have a little hope?

Blessed beyond measure to be a mother, and will never take that title or role lightly.
