Breakfast Requests

Breakfast is my least favorite meal of the day. And for some unknown reason, my children tend to wake up and they're hungry! So, pretty much every morning, we go through the "what to you want for breakfast" discussion. Lately, Abby definitely wants dirty milk as her beverage of choice, while Anni prefers juice. As far as food offerings go, we usually have either smoothies (if they aren't overly hungry), scrambled eggs and toast, yogurt and cheerios or oatmeal. That's about as fancy as I get in the morning. The girls, however, like to request other types of food for breakfast. For example:

Me: Anni, what do you want for breakfast?

Anni: Goldfish.

Me: You can't have goldfish for breakfast.

Anni: Goldfish and juice.

Me: No, no goldfish in the morning.

Anni (big sigh): Cheerios and juice.

And immediately thereafter, having heard Anni's and my entire conversation:

Abigail: I have root beer and Cheetos for breakfast, please?
