Breakfast in bed



One morning Savanna asked me to make her breakfast in bed. Jared and I aren't too keen on eating in beds, crumbs and whatnot. So I said no, sometimes I'm really not a fun mommy. Savanna asked me again then next week on Saturday, and since I was feeling in a "want to be a good fun mommy" mood, I said I would do it. Weston came in the kitchen and saw the tray of food I was making and asked if he could have breakfast in bed too. Fiora followed suit. So I made all my kids breakfast in bed. To say they loved it is an understatement. Weston thought he'd died and gone to heaven. The next Saturday Weston asked for breakfast in bed again. I said no I'm going to stay in bed. I guess he didn't hear me because he sat in his bed for 30 minutes and finally started yelling and crying "Why isn't anyone making me breakfast in bed!!" That made Jared mad and me not really wanting to validate his pain. He didn't get his wish that morning. But we both agreed that it showed how much he loved it the first time. I scheduled Thanksgiving morning as the day I would do it again, and we got some pictures.

Awesome! That is a nice mommy thing to do for sure. Lately, out of desperation, I've been letting Jane eat bagels in front of the TV (she says, "Elmo Bagel!" 50 times til I give in), and I wish she would get over that. I have a feeling if I give the boys breakfast in bed, it will be the same . . .
