Eater

One week, Andy told the kids that we'd have dessert again on Wednesday.  We didn't talk about it anymore and on Wednesday, Hope-e asked, "is it Wednesday?"  I said, why do you ask? And, she said, we're eating dessert tonight!  Ha!  She is an eater.  The first to ask about snack or what are we having for dinner.  She's started "savoring" her sweet snacks lately to the point that everyone else is finished  and she will ask if she can save some for later.

She is also usually the messiest eater at the table...she is just so focused on eating that she can't seem to remember to eat carefully and keep her mouth shut.  I thought she would have grown out of this by now, but she still talks with food in her mouth.  Self control is our main focus right now.
