Negotiations

Negotiations have started at mealtime.  Last night, Emma ate all of her meat but didn't touch her vegetables.  We told her she had to have more vegetables in order to get more meat.  Then the vegetables disappeared and she wanted more, but hadn't touched her rice.  Eat your rice and you'll get more vegetables.  Plate clean and several servings of vegetables served.  Wow, that was easy, too easy.

"Mmmmm, I love asparagus now!"
Similar negotiations have been taking place over the last month.  We even got her to eat kale in exchange for a "treat".

"You expect me to eat that pile of leaves?"

"Barffffff."

So proud of her well-earned popsicle.
