hungry boy

My sweet third child,
I am so sorry that you are always hungry
I see you sitting at the table with the others
your plate is empty at the end of the meal
where is all of your food going?
for minutes after you are excused I find you scrounging again
today you found your brother's left over lunch
and yes, you were eating it!
I promise to pay more attention to your diet
you're just so capable of feeding yourself
using a fork and knife is nothing... you've nearly mastered your chopsticks!
I love you my baby
and will sit next to you at every meal from now on and be your personal eating assistant
Mama
