When James was about this age there is a picture of him COVERED in his afternoon snack of yogurt and banana with the biggest smile on his face. I had given him the snack and then ran unstairs to put in a load of laundry and when I returned, he had made a huge mess. He was just so happy I couldn't be mad and had to take a picture. Our playgroup would exchange a photo of each child at our summer playgroup birthday party. I picked that photo to pass out to everyone in the group. One of the girls now calls James "messy boy" from that picture. It appears 3 years later, I have not gotten any more creative in a snack for my kids, and Katie now can be called "messy girl." Although James still holds the title for messiest boy as his yogurt ended up in his hair, ears, and nose. Katie's a relatively neat messy eater...
