My Challenge

I am not have never been and never will be a morning person .On my mission I "read" my scriptures lying in bed facing away from my companion to catch a little more sleep because 6:30 AM is way to early to function.

During the summer my children have healthy nutritious breakfasts. I take the time to cook because they get up at about 8-8:30 so they don't want to eat til 9.

During the school year is a totally different story. They need to be eating breakfast at 7:45 to be ready to leave for school. So they either eat frozen waffles (when girl #1 was little she would only eat them frozen) or cereal. I don't buy sugary cereal so that is how I justified them eating it all the time.

So here was my challenge to myself. No cold cereal for 1 week. I would make them hot breakfast every morning. Which meant I was up and at um by 7. UGH

It has been 3 weeks and they had cereal 2 times...that is right only 2 times and that was because my kitchen was a disaster and I couldn't find my utensels to cook anything.

I am so proud of my self and I think my kids are better for it. I am no longer buying cereal I only have cherrios for baby snacks when were out and at church. So now it isn't an option.

I am now on the road to being Molly Mormon...a girl can dream :~)
