Dinner is #1

Amaya asked me yesterday, "So, guess which meal I like the best?"

I quickly responded with, "Breakfast." I thought this was a sure bet because she would eat breakfast foods any time of the day.

I was wrong. "No, Mom. I like dinner... because this is the time when we all get to eat together."

And this, coming off of a week when only one evening had the four of us gathered around the table (my second week of nursing orientation... I'm done now!). It served as a good reminder of the things that matter to my kiddos...can't take any shortcuts with this one!
