I just told 4yo ds that it's summer, and that means we try the new, yummy summer veggies. One new one every day, and we'll keep trying the ones he hates over and over to see if he will ever like them. He did it tonight, and he hated it, but he was at least willing to try, which is a total effing miracle. [ Reply | More ]
