AUGH, the Life of a Mom!

As a child I have a vivid memory of my mom when I was about 7 years old. We were sitting down for dinner and she got mad and she got her purse and she left. I don't remember exactly what happened that made her angry, but now I get it. What probably happened was that we were all complaining about what she made for dinner, again. And she had it. I feel that way right now, and my kids are only 4 and 2. I feel like I try very hard to come up with creative and healthy meals, and no matter what it is, someone complains. It is infuriating! I will say that my husband is always appreciative, and truthfully if he doesn't like it he keeps it to himself. I have told him in the past, you have to tell me if you don't like it or I will make it again. I am also not one of those moms that makes several things for dinner. I make one thing, and I try to make things that everyone likes, and everyone eats it. If you don't eat it, then you will really enjoy your breakfast. I am just frustrated by the complaining and the fact that sometimes, Reagan especially, won't even take a bite. So irritating!
