I couldn't find anything to make for dinner, and I didn't want to pile the boys in the car to pick-up fast food. After looking in the fridge and freezer at least ten times, I settled on making a few waffles.
While the waffles were toasting, my three year old said, "Mommy, ladies don't eat waffles". "What? What do you mean ladies don't eat waffles?" to which he replied, "Mommy, ladies don't eat waffles because they aren't healthy, they aren't good for your body".
I have such a HUGEmongous influence on my boys right now, and will continue to for the rest of their lives, I am sure. That is why I have got to change my life and my lifestyle. Not only for me, but for my precious boys and their children, and their children.... who knows who I will hurt in the future if I do not set a good example for my boys, now, while I can.

It's amazing what our kids pick up...
My husband and I have been addicted to Special K's waffles for dinner! They are so good with sugar free syrup!
This post rocks, and really hits home. Good for you for having an 'aha' moment!
such an ah ha! moment and one which I had in a way this weekend when my daughter let out a BIG SIGH and announced she was FREAKING OUT!!
I need to remember they absorb ALL :)

You might want to work on the Aha! moment a bit too and make sure that he knows it isn't only women who have to watch what they're eating ;-)
Amen!
