Yelling from kitchen to living room wherein three hungry children sit.
"There are two pancakes left. Who wants them?"
Why oh why do I do this?
The drama that ensued was epic.
I'm 40.
I should have learned the numbers game by now.

Hi Jillian! Thanks so much for stopping by my blog for a birthday greeting! It certainly helped make my day.
Hope your little guy was ok with school!

You walked right in to that one, Mom.
Oh, I do this, too. Why do we forget?
FRACTIONS, Jillian, FRACTIONS.
Each child gets two-thirds of a pancake!
Not only is everyone happy... you expose them to higher level math at the same time! WIN-WIN!!!
I do that now and again as well. except I have 6 kids so it makes it a bit worse, boy "hungry" kiddos can give dirty looks, LOL. With 6 I try to remember to cut things up fairly. They do actually complain less even if it is a small piece as long as it is even and fair.

I have that same problem in my house of four children. Two pieces of gum and they all want them!!
