With everything that was going on this week and the stress we’re all under, I allowed the children to decide what they wanted to eat a few times this week. Food is love and the foods they enjoy brings them happiness – this week I wanted my children to be happy and eat well, not fight over whether or not they’ll eat. With us all being at home next week, there’ll be plenty of opportunity for shared meal planning and shared meals so I’m not feeling guilty about taking the easy option this week.
