Pleeeeassssse Eat!!!

So what do you do when you have a 4.5 year old who by all rights should be hungry but refuses to eat? How about suggesting she make her own sandwich? Emmie had a small cup of fruit for breakfast this day and a single bite of pancake. At 1:30 she was so busy playing she didn't want to stop for lunch. Knowing she was about to hit the wall and get grouchy due to hunger I came up with a plan. I suggested she make her own sandwich and suddenly she was hung. After she made her sandwich she finished her entire lunch which is something she seldom does. Here is my little Chef in training creating her sandwich master piece.

First you put on the peanut butter....

then more peanut butter...

add some jelly...

and spread it around...

put the top on...

and enjoy the fruits of your labor!
