It&#8217;s sort of simple&#8230; SNACKS! I wish I was exaggerating, but I&#8217;m not. Almost always when they&#8217;re unhappy, a snack seems to do the trick. It&#8217;s not necessarily the solution to the reason why they&#8217;re upset (they might be tired, bored, exhausted or just upset), but a snack helps calm them down almost immediately. Once they are back to their happy old selves, I can help address the real issue. Basically, I never leave home without snacks!<\/p>\n<p>While I may be super organized when it comes to kids snacks, I can&#8217;t say the same is true for myself. In fact, I&#8217;m probably neglecting myself when it comes to my eating habits. I tend to focus on what the kids are eating and I&#8217;m an after thought. Between school drops off and picks up, heading to the park or play-dates or driving them to their extra curricular activities, there isn&#8217;t much time to get MYSELF\u00a0organized. This leaves me eating their scraps or worse yet, just grabbing the first food I see in sight which is usually unhealthy and full of sugar or salt (or both).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-11506\" src=\"https:\/\/mayahoodblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/good-simple-muffins-on-towel-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"good &amp; simple muffins on towel\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mayahoodblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/good-simple-muffins-on-towel-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/mayahoodblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/good-simple-muffins-on-towel-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mayahoodblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/good-simple-muffins-on-towel-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m really organized as a mother, but I&#8217;m terrible at self-care &#8211; clearly!
