Dinner

With two kids, dinnertime is sometimes - ok always - a lesson in multitasking. So tonight there I was, eating my dinner with one hand, feeding Rebecca Muesli With Yogurt and Raisins with the other hand, and negotiating with Ben over how many more bites of chicken, rice and salad he had to eat before he could have chocolate animal crackers. When Joel asked to be excused, I reflexively looked over at his plate to see if he'd finished his dinner.

"Did you just look at my plate to see if I finished my dinner?" Busted!
