You Can Do It!
You can do it mamas! It takes much perseverance but you can stand for the whole health of the next generation (that includes your babies).
Remember whole health is spirit, soul, and body- each part of how God made us is important and valid to steward and nurture.
If you have multiple children, continue your journey exploring what each child digests best, chews best, enjoys best, etc. and distribute accordingly. You'll see in the details listed below that I serve something slightly unique to each child.
All three of my babies ate together at the table after I captured this photo! Precious and______________hahahaha, you fill in the blank. Most things with them are usually precious and __________________!
Okay, details...
Asher, my 2-year-old son is eating:
1) homemade bean dip (Stonyfield organic whole milk plain yogurt, organic black beans, salt, pepper, onion powder) on Garden of Eatin' organic blue corn tortilla chips. He also has this bean dip on the side!
2) Goji berries
3) Skinned organic pear
4) Gluten-free Rotini pasta with olive oil, salt, and pepper
Sissy, also known as Willow, my 1-year-old daughter is eating:
1) homemade bean dip on tortilla chips. She also has this bean dip on the side!
2) Skinned organic pear
3) Gluten-free Rotini pasta with olive oil, salt, and pepper
Jeremiah, my 3-year-old, big boy is eating:
1) Gluten-free Rotini pasta with olive oil, salt, and pepper
2) Organic green beans
3) Natural cheddar cheese
4) Simple, low sodium Pickles (dye-free)
5) Organic carrots
Water-filled sippy cups all around. Children should drink half their body weight in ounces of water each day! Hydration is so, so helpful and necessary to health. Don't overlook it, for you or for them.
Final note: Veggies, veggies, veggies. Don't lose heart. I've worked with my 3-year-old for two years to enjoy veggies and now I can add three veggies options to his plate and he eats them!
