In an effort to better serve my children through mealtime/nutrition, I've decided to start holding myself accountable to what it is I'm putting in their little bodies. I'm going to do my best to blog about their meals and keep a food dialogue. I always think I'm giving them nutritious foods, but there have been many days when I've thought about the options I've provided them and been down-right embarrassed! I desire to glorify God in all things...including ensuring that I'm helping my children to grow strong, healthy bodies that can better serve HIM!
