STOP!!!

Our girls are good eaters. They usually aren't real picky, although they don't necessarily pick what most kids pick. When we go out to eat, they would usually rather pick something different than what is on the kids' menu. When we go to fast food, they sometimes would rather have a salad rather than fries and burger or chicken. Anyway, we were eating lunch at home the other day. We were having homemade tamales, which they love; hominy and cheese, which is ok for them; rice and green chili, which they like except it was pretty spicy; and edamame, which they love. A ate pretty much everything and was going to town on the edamame when she said (as she was stuffing more in her mouth,) "I love this food, but I gotta quit cause my stop sign is going to come out."
It took me a minute. I guess I wasn't paying much attention until H informed us that A has a stop sign that comes up when she is full! I CRACKED up!!! What a great image though and I wish I could listen to my stop sign better! She is so interesting and has a unique perspective on life! Tonight she informed me that when she eats sweets, her stop sign says "stop" with candy canes. Nice to know!
