No Breaks

Something that’s been bothering me lately is the boys are hungry and hungry right now. That’s not the problem, the problem is that there’s no quick fix solutions.

Here’s a yogurt.

Here’s an apple.

“Mom, I’m still hungry”

They want meals. You can’t just quick grab a meal and throw it together. Breakfast, lunch and dinner, if you don’t have a meal plan sketched in your head for each day you’re scrambling. Then at mealtime the kids are getting cranky it just makes it harder.

Oh how I long for the day to just boil some pasta with butter and cheese, or make one kind of pancakes, or be able to make hamburger helper! Well, not sure I would feed my kids the last one but it would be quick and easy! Even to open a can of spaghettios and serve it would be wonderful. To be able to pour a bowl of cereal. Make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, or to have bread to make a sandwich.

Someday we’ll be “normal” again, someday.
