If you could go back in time....

....would you still have this many kids?
-This is a question my daughter Sara ask me frequently, and my answer is always :"I don't know". I never consider three being a lot of kids, but it seems like for her it is an outrageous amount of kids. My parents had three kids and it was a number I was comfortable with. Now, three girls, that is a lot of girls. Living in a house with a Teen, soon to be Teen and a soon to be Tween, it can get very crazy at times. The fights, the crying, the whining...the drama!, it's all so familiar to me. It is crazy, but it's my life, and for now, I just treasure every little moment of it!.

Preparation:
Cook the onion, carrot and garlic in the olive oil until the onion is transparent. Remove from the pan and set aside. Cook the chicken in the same pan until browned (you may need to add a little more oil). Add the rice and onion mixture and mix all together.

Add the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and cover. Let cook for about 10 to 15 minutes. Add the corn and peas and cook for another 5 minutes. Add pepper and salt to taste. Serve warm.
