My children are horrible eaters. Seriously, like going-to-drive-me-to-drinking bad eaters. It honestly doesn't need to be as difficult as they make it. I obviously don't have a hard time getting it done, I don't understand why they do.When dinner was having a hard time getting in their mouths and down their throats, I decided to try a bribe. Bike rides; but only after their food was all gone. I finished my dinner (which was neither disgusting nor delicious... eggs, bacon and biscuits,) and told them I was going by myself.
By the time I had the garage open, Oakley came out the door, still chewing an entire plate of food. We headed on our normal route, commenting on how nice the cool breeze was, and when we reached about the 1/3 way point it started sprinkling. By half way it was pouring with gusty winds and we were so cold! We rode against the wind as quick as we could back home. We pulled the bikes back into the garage, and turned to look at the rain... which had miraculously stopped.
And that's why you don't try to teach lessons to your children.

My daughter is the worst eater too and it makes me insane. So frustrating. Even if I force feed her she just spits it out. I realized the other day that everyone that I am in charge of feeding (my husband, Reese, & my dog) are all malnourished yet i am just fine. Whats up with that?
I love that story. I bet Oakley will remember it with fondness. And hopefully, he'll eat his food better.
That'll be the best lesson he ever learned - I bet he LOVED it!!! and won't ever forget it!
Ugh. Why does it have to be like that?! Props to Oakley for finishing like a champion. Every night at bedtime we make Chase spit out the remaining dinner bolus into our hand. Gag. Love the quote reference by the way. Did you hear they are doing a mini-season before the movie? Excited.

These three are the reason I weigh 30 pounds more than I did three years ago when I started trying to be a good eater example to them. Maybe it was caused by their food that I shoved into my mouth so it wouldn't go to waste. I was tricked and it went to waist instead. Wish I knew how to help since my good example didn't do it. Oakley did love the ride in the rain though.
I love it! I. Mean I am sorry you got rained on but I love the moral of the story :)
I always love to read your blog posts because you are so funny. I need to check out your blog more often. I keep running into people that say...I know someone who knows you and it turns out to be you (Becky Temp & Lindsey Bowen). Then I think, we need to get together now that I'm back in Arizona because Sara is cool. I bet Blake and Oakley would have a great time. Maybe one of these days...
In conclusion, it is not just mere fame which defines a criminal lawyer, but sensibility and appropriate understanding between the client and the lawyer which motivates the lawyer and helps him to deal with the case properly.
Love the quote reference by the way. Did you hear they are doing a mini-season before the movie? Excited.
