Yesterday I told Eli something that has probably never before been uttered to any child: “you have to eat some more pizza before you can have more broccoli.” That was last night.

Tonight after dinner he snuck in to the kitchen and crawled on a chair to get a fresh, uncooked green bean that was left over from dinner.

So we try to eat pretty healthy, and we also try to feed our kids the same way. Eli refuses to eat Kraft Singles and other faux cheese. He prefers actual cheese. Apparently this has paid off.
