I like grass...

Feb. 28, 09
I don't normally just share thoughts about the kids I save those for their private journal but Avery continues to get wiser and funnier so here we go. Those of you who have been lucky enough to spend some time with the kids know how funny they both are. Clearly they feed off of each other last night was the exception as Alyssa decided not to partake in dinner but to pout through most of it. I must say she missed out, it was a good dinner. I actually cooked and baked at once that in itself is a miracle. Just in case you are wondering nothing burned and no one got food poisoning. We (daddy and I) don't generally force the kids to eat anything but we do insist on them trying something before they say they don't like it. Dinner was pretty basic lasagna, french bread, salad and cup cakes for dessert. I had promised the kids cup cakes three days ago, baking was not an option. As we sat to dinner we made sure we prefaced to the boy and the girl that in order to get a cup cake they had to eat their salad as well Avery looks at me with discuss and says "What you want me to eat this, what is this Grass! Your making me eat Grass!" We both turned our heads and laughed, because it was funny. Well before we new it Avery was half done with his salad and proceeds to comment "I like grass."
