Chopsticks

The kids LOVE Japanese food! Every time we drive or walk by the sushi place down the street from us, Kyle declares "dat's sushi place for eat-time mommy!" So on the way home from dropping Jacki off at the airport yesterday, Kyle saw the sushi restaurant and said "we have sushi for eat-time." So we went to sushi for dinner. The kids love playing with the chopsticks and even can pick up a few items with them. And I'm not talking about stabbing it with the stick and picking it up. I'm talking about using both and getting food between them. Last night they accepted the orange kiddie chopstick joiners so they were even more successful. Emily was a champ at picking up her edamame with them and was SO very proud! And the meal wasn't complete without some yummy pink mochi to wash it all down!
