He ate spaghetti sauce out of the pot on the stove when his mama specifically told him not to, and then of course had it all over his little face. When my mother-in-law asked him if he ate the sauce, he told her no, repeatedly, despite the obvious proof (and got punished for lying to his mother AND eating the sauce). So now we say, "Do you have spaghetti sauce on your face?" if we suspect a fib! Also - you are a great model of patience and gentleness with your children!!Linzyannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04483001814534375977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2942972536445525495.post-45524343918636335272008-07-14T16:41:00.000-04:002008-07-14T16:41:00.000-04:00broccolli casserole barely qualifies as broccolli!...broccolli casserole barely qualifies as broccolli! come on!<BR/>It is more like, cheese, soup, cracker, butter, rice, and oh to make it healthy let's put a little broccolli in too!<BR/>lol!mom0ktdidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03045406829700201697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2942972536445525495.post-12549835645507556302008-07-14T16:37:00.000-04:002008-07-14T16:37:00.000-04:00I can see his expression as he is telling you all ...I can see his expression as he is telling you all this too;-) I am impressed that he realized what you were talking about.

At least he knew he needed to tell the truth. There are so many kids that age who would not know that they needed to confess. I am really proud of him, and of you. Good job sticking with it, and not giving in! I'm eager to hear how dinner tonight goes. <BR/> As I write, Zion is dumping animal crackers all over the table, without asking if he can have them. So, food is a constant thing I guess!Andysbethyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04005340108039880872noreply@blogger.com
