    I think you just changed my life by saying you’d post a Snack List on the fridge!!! Thank you!!
    (Every single day. 10ish am. And 3ish pm. “Mom, what can I have for a snack?” Times 5. Me…every single time…”Fruit, cheese, or granola bar.”
    Them: “Well, how about a popsicle??” I diiiieeeeeee. Now my answer can be: “the list is on the fridge,” & maybe just maybe they’ll realize they don’t even have to ask at all!! And all the moms said AMEN!!) (: (: (:
