Naomi has always been a non fussy eater. She could eat very much everything without any complaints. She always tried new things and if she dint like it at all ;she would not eat anymore. But unlike the other kid of her age she always went for the first bite and gave a try .
I always had the feeling she dint know anything about taste.. She could eat food with no salt too.
This was until I visited my friend Purvi who has an almost 18 month old. We had planned to stay there whole day. As a good mother I fed both my kids ( I have a second one 18 month old too ) a heavy breakfast before I reached her house. This is what almost all moms do right??:)
As soon as we landed there;purvi had HUGE assorted collection of delicacies for our breakfast and lunch. TO MY EYES it was an unbelievable sight. My kids kept slurping down everything that was cooking and actually drooling with greed as they saw more coming in.. !!
That day brought tears to my eyes. All this time I felt I was doing enough or may be more that what I could do to make healthy yet tasty dishes for my kids. I always felt I stretched myself to the last edge to get the best of me. But as its well said; you are the best until u meet someone better than you!!..
I have incorporated lot of dishes what we had that day and now try to do more on the food stuff but the punch line that always follows with naomi's hungry eyes and excitingly thrilled face when she smells something good cooking in kitchen...
"Mommy, Are u cooking something JUST LIKE PURVI AUNTY does?"
