One of Gwen's eyebrows arched as he admitting to wanting children. She wasn't aware of many men who would admit to that. Well, obviously they all wanted an heir to their name or their title if they had one; some to help with the responsibility of the work around their home but other than that. It didn't seem very common for a man to want a child for the reason of...having a child. The work that went into creating said offspring, absolutely without question. Just not the rest of it.
When he pointed to the mixture of squash and pumpkins, Gwen nodded. "I was attempting to - Helga assures me that the vegetables are good for Lora and the healer here seems to agree so I have been trying with different combinations that the house elfs offer up. So far, it has not gone over well, as you can probably tell from her clothes." She smiled weakly, suddenly feeling like a horrible mother for not being able to get her own child to eat something. Was she missing a trick? Maybe adding a little honey to the mixture to sweeten it up might help...? If Gwen herself preferred it in her porridge, what could it hurt to add a little to the vegetables?
"I was thinking of perhaps adding a bit of the honey to it just to see if a drop or two would entice her. I know it's precious and she can't have it all the time but just this morning, when there's already so much to do. I want to make sure she'd well fed before handing her off to Rauble for today, as she'll have enough to do with Helena to watch as well."
