As a mother, I have always been a sucker for rituals or routines or traditions. Some of them I copy from my childhood or a book I have read or an idea shared by another mom. I have two "meal" traditions that I have done with my kids since they were babies. The first is Valentines Day! I love this day and it's always so much fun with my kids. Every Valentine's day morning, I wake up and make pancakes. I dye the batter red...cook them up and cut-out hearts. I also throw in a couple of handfuls of chocolate chips to make it even more sweeter. My kids always know they are coming and look forward to that "special" morning.
Just writing this post, I have quite a few. But, another "meal" tradition, I do are birthdays. The only thing is that I throw out the "meal" and replace it with dessert. The morning of my kid's birthdays I whip up an extra special cupcake on the birthday plate and they eat that! I know it's full of sugar and icing but my kids love it! Nothing like starting your special day with something "sweet".
I have also been known to dye the eggs "green" on St. Patrick's Day. Cinnamon rolls served the morning of our family Christmas or a big breakfast the FIRST day of school. Making "meal" time special and unique is another way to tell your family you love them!
What special traditions or meals does your family have?
