Different Philosphies

I understand that all people have different philosophies when it comes to parenting. I guess I just assumed we were pretty middle of the road and I guess normal. This weekend I became acutely aware that my kids eating hot dogs twice a week is not normal in some households. We had a cook out with some of Daves family. His cousins came from Detroit and Colorado. The one family has a little boy who is two perfect age for Em and Zach to play with. I am proud to report that we had no meltdown over sharing. I think we are making progress. But what i was just amazed with is the little boy and his mom eat a totally whole food diet. All I could think of is oh my that must take up a lot of time to plan, and remember to pack what ever you are going to eat. That is a lot of work. I give people credit who can do this. I know it does not fit into my lifestyle or my kids lifestyle. I guess the idea is what you dont know you dont miss. The crack up of the night was when Emily saw a cookie he was eating she tried one and just about gagged. Guess Emily is not a candidate for the whole food diet. The kids had a great time playing and the adults had a nice time visiting and catching up! The weekends of the summer are quickly flying by. Only a few more weekends then it is time for School. Hard to believe!
