Sunday Lunch

Chet has to be gone for Sunday morning meetings. So, getting the kids breakfast is all mine, and usually that doesn't happen with a lot of style (It wouldn't be so bad if we got our lazy butts out of bed earlier, but I don't!) When we get home, the kids think that they might just die if they don't have something to eat RIGHT AWAY!! Today I was vegging on the couch doing NOTHING, and Carter keeps asking me if he can use all this food. I just said yes to everything he asked. Soon he appeared with his lunch, made all by himself. Toasted bread, turkey, cheese (from the block of cheese, they are past the processed stuff, they want the good stuff!), onion, green pepper, and tomato. He had cut everything himself except his bread and turkey. Then he had pringles on the side and a homemade chocolate chip cookie (that I made on Friday and didn't want everyone to eat so I hid them in the cupboard until after church. Chet is currently yelling at the boys because the cookies are gone and Cael didn't get one. They just disappear!) I like his style though! I am a little afraid for the future wives of these amazing young men I am raising. What 8 year old has to have all that on his sandwich? He wanted avocado too, but I am down to my last one, so I lied and told them they were gone. Bad Mom... but my sandwich will be good! (and all those veggies were from the garden, yippeeee!!!! Except my avocado of course. I wish I could grow a tree here!)
