Today's Victory: This morning I was awake when my 2 1/2 year old was getting ready for school. My husband takes her to school or to her grandma's house in the mornings and I have been staying at home with the baby. I was eating my oatmeal, which my daughter never wants anymore, and she asked if she could have a bite. She always eats what I have when I don't want or feel like sharing. I was starving this morning. Well, I never tell her no if it is a healthy choice. She can eat whatever I have as long as it is healthy. Well she ended up demolishing my breakfast. This made me proud of myself. She only wanted it because I had it. So think about this. What if I would have had a sausage biscuit from McDonalds. She would have wanted that. But she saw her mommy eating oatmeal and ate all of it. #Winning!!! So my homework for everyone today is to be a good example to someone today and share your healthy meal with them so they won't eat junk! Especially the kiddos.

- I should have added something else to breakfast. I was starving but only got up to eat and then went straight back to bed. My newborn was sleeping. When she sleeps, I sleep!
