Dinners with two kids is always a challenging: There are only a handful of things (chicken and rice and peanut-butter sandwiches being two) that both my girls will eat. And complicating matters, Avery has been rather picky lately, often wanting to eat nothing but fruit, cereal or cheese sticks. (Pasta and pizza, things that a lot of kids love? Avery has little interest.)

I thought I had hit a home-run last night, though: Both girls like sandwiches and love cheese, so I was feeling confident about my menu of tuna melts and baby carrots. Zoe was pleased, but Avery: not so much. She looked at her plate, picked up the sandwich and handed it to me, saying, “No that, Mommy.”

I had to laugh.
