I’ve had some pregnancies where I was much heavier. I’m not making any special effort to avoid gaining weight now, but I think there’s just not as much available for me to eat, with so much competition. By the time I sit down to supper, some of the boys are already asking for thirds!

I imagine that dinner can be hectic at your house. My mother forced us to help out, and I remember setting the table, making salads, fetching butter, dressing and whatnot. Only the boys were exempt, but there were only two of them, and five of us.

Two of my sisters liked helping out with the meals. I liked reading. :)
