Are we eating too healthy?

This week both of my kids had birthdaysand  we let them choose the dinner menu on their birthday.  Yesterday my son chose what I would expect any kid would choose, delivery pizza.  Okay, fine.  We can have pizza once in a while.  Today is my daughter's birthday and I was gearing up for another request of pizza, mac 'n cheese, or something "kid friendly."  Was I surprised when she announced we were having fish and asparagus for her birthday dinner!  What five year old chooses fish and asparagus for her birthday dinner? 

If it makes you feel better, my kids (7 and 9) have always LOVED fish.  When they are asked what they want it is usually fish with steamed broccoli (their favorite veggie).  Salmon is their favorite by far, with halibut or swordfish as a close second.  When we go to restaurants, they will always choose the fruit or steamed veg instead of fries.

I just count my blessings that they love healthy food!!  Congrats on teaching them to enjoy all kinds of food, and to appreciate the nutritious stuff!

I think that is great....that child is wise beyond her years!!!

Happy Birthday to your son and daughter!!
