Growing up, I never left dessert behind.
Even if I was full I’d finish it.
Because I didn’t know when I’d get more.
Because I didn’t want to waste it.
Because I thought stopping meant I wasn’t being ‘good.’
So today, when I picked up the bowl my daughter left behind with ice cream still melted in the bottom I almost couldn’t believe it.
She just… stopped.
Because she was done.
That’s the kind of relationship with food I never had as a kid.
