Confession: I'm a bad mother

OK. I have a confession to make - My girls have never had a popsicle. It isn't that I haven't tried, they just do not seem to have any interest in anything like that unless it is ice cream.

Well, after lunch, the girls seemed to be a little cranky, but were not going down for a nap for me. So, I thought that I would redeem myself from being the worst mom ever, and teach them about Push Ups.

I took out 1 for each of us and pushed the creamy orange sherbet up so they could get their taste. I put them in a bowl for each of them. They looked at me like I was crazy. Then I told them to watch mommy and showed them how to eat it. They started to the get the hang of it and actually enjoyed it. Anna couldn't quite get the "grip" so a lot of it ended up on her shirt. After them having it melt quite a bit because they couldn't eat it fast enough. I pushed the remaining into the bowl and got spoons for them. They finished off their Push Ups just fine.
i guess I will have to work on their technique.
