The Most Important Meal of the Day

Breakfast time at the Murphy house is usually uneventful. Lily ordinarily chooses from the list of her favorite breakfast items, which include cereal, oatmeal, yogurt and the occasional pancake. I can usually give Sophia the same thing her sister orders, but on certain days, I need to throw in a piece of toast or two.
This morning, after the girls received their breakfast, I couldn't help but notice the difference between a three year old who feeds herself and an 18 month old child who INSISTS on feeding herself.


Lily with her bowl of cereal. Notice her clean face?

Sophia being independent with that spoon and yogurt


The end result


Do you see the difference?
But who cares about a little mess when you see how happy these girls are now that their tummies are full?!
