We have two (3 if you count Susie) Strawberry Monsters in
our house. Strawberries or strawbees as Tommy calls them have been his favorite food since he started solids
basically. His diet consists of
strawberries and whole milk. That is
literally all that he eats most days. He
is the pickiest eater ever…not sure where he gets that—I have such a
well-rounded palate or not. :) Anyhow, he asks for strawberries with every
meal and once Maggie hears him asking for them pretty soon she wants them
too. These two can eat the entire container
in one sitting…and then usually ask for more.
No big deal in the summer, but now we are approaching the time of year when they
will be $7/container. I was out plowing
the driveway Sunday. Maggie and Tommy
were out helping me but got cold and headed inside. Susie and Teddy were at the store. When I finished and headed inside this is
what I found:
Apparently they wanted a snack. Maggie isn't allowed to use a knife so she
taught Tommy how to eat them and leave the tops (We usually cut them up for him
still).
When I saw the pile on the floor and their
strawberry-stained faces, Maggie quickly told me how proud I should be of her
and Tommy because they ate them all the way up to the tops and didn't waste
any. Then they asked if we had anymore….
