Nutrition Isn’t About Perfection It’s about making sure they eat pretty well, most of the time, and not stressing about the rest. It’s about balancing your kids’ needs with yours. And, it’s about embracing shortcuts that make feeding your family doable. (Because you have to do it every. single. day!) -Kacie, Mama Knows Nutrition
