Hungry
is what they are. These two boys are into eating. Their two younger brothers will eat and even like to eat, mostly. But these two, well, they are almost always in full calorie-hunt mode.

Today I asked J what he’d like for lunch. We’d just returned from school and it was 1 pm. I offered him choices. I said, “Would you like a pork chop and some rice or a peanut and jelly sandwich?” He didn’t even stop to think. “Both,” he said.

Then it hit me that this is only the beginning. Eventually, I will have 4 male teenagers — at the same time. Yikes. My grocery budget may never recover.

Happy Tuesday, y’all.
