The puberty period

minerals, vitamins and fiber.

Varied food... chuckle... yesterday at one of my blood announced that I will look after it again like a hawk. This morning she told my love that she would come home in the break because “Mom wants to check what I eat” and that's just how it is.

It's not that she doesn't eat, or a lot doesn't like or wants to eat, none of this. She's got her own rhythm. And to a certain extent that is also fine but I think I need to reset that height. You want noodle soup in the morning, fine but not for the rest of the day. Do you want to eat porridge, fine but we eat it once a day (although she just trumped me now but tomorrow I can't do that anymore). If you come from school, you can eat something but not a full meal to fill up during dinnertime and... that.

So after my sermon about minerals, vitamins and fiber, I got a “yes, yes” and finally I say something about growing after it. She's not exactly a crop-washed sprout, so be it. “I am no longer the smallest in the classroom” is than the counterargument to which I respond with “then certainly the second smallest” on which she laughs and cries with satisfaction: “the third smallest”... “we” walk in apparently (chuckles).

I always have to laugh a little at this kind of conversation. Perhaps even more about the resignation with my sprouts. Somewhere I always have the feeling that they have something like “have you got her again” and then secretly think “just let go, it's another phase and it goes over again and the less we go against it the faster that goes”. A bit of that which I regularly have with my children. I can deny it, but that would be unfair.


I once told sprout numero 3 that he didn't have to get it in his head to dive into puberty before the eldest one was out. That I can only trade two at a time with puberty spells. He solemnly promised that when I made this plea, and he had just before it had been discussed, and looked at his sister, amazed and resigned, “That's a case of puberty, isn't it?”

When I understood that there might be an overlap I told numero uno that she really had to be out of puberty before numero 3 would come in because otherwise I wouldn't pull that. From the weekend I had another moment (Again in the kitchen. Apparently, the kitchen is THE suitable place for meaningless discussions and conversations) but this time the roles were reversed and numero 1 looked at how numero 3 ran away and she noticedI thought this was well arranged, huh? One out of puberty and the other in. I tried to get her to record that autographed in black and white, but she didn't go for it. A breather would have been nice but on the other hand after each other in the puberty period I have to be able to handle.

I wonder what awaits me in this area. The biggest strength measurements I've had in my life with the kids are the strength measurements with the newest participant in the adolescent stuff. I guess I'd better get ready for it. Not that it happened very often, but the few times they took place are still engraved in everyone's memory. For the time being, I'll deal with the vitamins, minerals and fiber and what else goes with it and then we'll see the rest when that comes.
