I've read from Dr Martha Sears book on toddler nutrition that the more colorful a food is, the more nutritious it is. I believe so and I am glad Gracia has developed a liking towards green broccoli, orange pumpkin, red apples, green pear, purple grapes, orange dried apricots, pink pomelo and shows a less liking towards processed foods like biscuits and cakes. She is just so very much like her dad. Both of them find biscuits and cakes too dry for their liking. Last Saturday, Gracia and I woke up early in the morning, finished our breakfast and went to Shop & Save to buy a pumpkin. We met a very loving auntie who offered to cut a whole pumpkin for us so we don't have to buy the whole pumpkin home. What amazes me was after filling herself up with mummy's pumpkin soup, Gracia started scooping the remaining pumpkin soup onto the highchair and begin drawing stars on it. Here, she was drawing circles and saying "tar, tar, tar" (stars)while I was washing the dishes. hahaha!
It was definitely an arty lunch for her and I'm just so happy to see her so happy. :)
