| it's not a lie.... |
| 04.25.05 (4:45 pm) [edit] |
I went upstairs to be sick in private on Saturday night during dinner. When I came back downstairs, Jacob and DH were locked in the epic Broccoli Battle. DH started to really lose his temper, so I tried to step in."Jake, just eat some of the broccoli. You eat it at school, right?" I ask. "No I don't!" he says. "Broccoli is stupid." "Jake, you've been eating everything at school, even broccoli. You tell me all the time how you eat the vegetables even when you don't like them," says I. "It was just an expression!" he shouts. It's 48 hours later and my mother is still laughing hysterically. It's much funnier, she says, when you don't have to be the one to punish the little stinker. |

The kid is right. Broccoli sucks.
It's amazing how kids will wolf down overcooked, soggy vegetables at school and ask for seconds, isn't it? Peer pressure.

Broccoli is a work of evil, so I have to agree. I eat it anyway, but that is not the point.
I cannot wait for my son to get this age now... well, maybe I can. Just a little bit.

Every stage has its upsides and, well, downsides. However, my husband took Jake to see the Cubs play last night, and came home thrilled to report that his son manfully bore the cold winds off the lake, polished off two hot dogs, and thoroughly enjoyed cheering our team on.
He's so proud to be a daddy...

I am proud as well and my son is only about a month old. I guess it is inevitable to be proud of your children to some degree, assuming you care at all for them. Even through all of the things they may do wrong in their lives, you are proud to have raised them.

Well, boiled broccoli sucks. I never mind it steamed, myself. Especially if you douse it with butter and parmesan.... Damn it. Now I'm hungry.
