In an attempt to capture my day to day life in my home I have gathered some memories here on "Life in the Craig house" Some of it is me praising God, some of it is me venting, some of it is boring ordinary stuff that seemed important at the time, most of it is funny, and all of it is from the heart. Thanks for checking in and seeing how I am doing on my journey of stay at home mom.

Ketchup soup
Picky eaters, what do you do with them? Trick them, lie, cheat, steal, do whatever you can do not throw food away. Tonight I was craving some tomato soup and grilled cheese. I knew that this would NOT work for Miss fussy pants Addison Marie so a light bulb went on over my head and an invention was born. Ketchup soup! My little Addison freaks out over tomatoes. I was the same way when I was a kid so I don't blame her but in adulthood I got over my fear and now I am a fan. I still don't get the whole chomp into a tomato thing but will take them on my sandwich without a fuss. Anthony grabbed the can and said "Look sissy tomato soup!" The flames started to rise in her eyes and her head began to spin while walking down aisle 9 in Walmart. I quickly tried to diffuse her by saying "Honey that is just a picture of tomatoes. THIS is ketchup soup!" Those eyebrows raised, "ketchup souuuup?" She had taken the bait and I reeled her in when she asked for another bowl at dinner tonight.

Brilliant, momma! A momma's got to do what a momma's got to do! ;)
BTW, the hibiscus/biscuit comment by Anthony you posted on FB had me literally laughing out loud. Love it!
What can I say I have one kid that LOVES food and one that I have to trick to eat it! :)
