And speaking of food

Do you know what fascinates me?  How my kids eat the food on their plates in the exact opposite order of each other.  I noticed it quite a while ago and have never mentioned it to them, but they are so consistant it is amazing.  For example, on Saturday, we had mini meatloaves, mashed potatoes, and corn.  The meat was the first thing gone from Cort's plate and the corn was the first thing gone from Ev's.  The potatoes were next for each of them, leaving the meat for Ev to eat last and the corn for Cortlan.  Sunday morning, we had our Valentine's Day breakfast of pink heart-shaped pancakes, strawberries and whipped cream.  Everly immediately ate all of her pancakes, leaving just strawberries on her plate.  Cortlan gobbled up all of his strawberries first, leaving only pancakes.  They do this all the time...at nearly every meal. And they never even notice and certainly don't do it on purpose.  Weird.
