That’s a hungry man!

This is Alex… one of my 6 handsome grandsons. He has entered that age when food is the only thing that is truly important. That age when getting filled up is a myth. He is beginning to be constantly hungry. When I am working with a client he comes and motions to me pointing at his mouth, or miming he is eating something out of his hand… thankfully he hasn’t begun EATING his hand! In this shot, you’ll notice he is the only one at the table. That is because we all finished. He is continuing to eat. He ate more than his brother did, more than I did, and even more than my husband did. And by the way, that veggie burger has tomato slices, and pickled jalapeno slices – yep, he has very good taste! We put my homemade sauerkraut on both mine and my husband’s veggie burgers… Alex liked it, but just likes tomatoes and jalapenos on his burger.

I recall this time in a boy’s life well… it seemed that from age 10 to when my son left home he was constantly eating. One day he managed to find some forgotten pineapple chunks in the frig that had begun growing. I was mortified that he ate them… ALL!!! I was grateful he didn’t get ill from it.

I love that Alex enjoys eating good healthy foods… When he was 2 1/2 he would wake up from his nap early, so I would bring him into the kitchen to be my taster while his brother finished his nap. Alex loves my healthy creations. Here’s a link to some of his (and my) favorite recipes.

It’s bitter sweet…

Of course, I know only too well that when a boy becomes an eating machine, he also grows rapidly. Kind of remind me of that childhood book, “A Fish Out of Water”. I enjoy the boy, and know the time of his youth is so short… I’m grateful to have this time with him, and this opportunity to record this moment and my thoughts. Some day he will be showing this to his kids. By then this time in our lives will be just a warm memory…

What memories are you making?

Creating positive memories are vitally important. But sometimes we get so busy with life that we forget to stop and take time. It doesn’t need to be a huge production. Just sharing time together and expressing love! When you embrace energy healing, blocks can be removed allowing your life to flow easier and you may find it easier to create these times together with your loved ones.
