There are times when my boys simply boggle my mind. Tonight was one of them. We were simply having leftovers for dinner. The boys struggled with the decision, "what do I want to eat tonight?" This was probably an exceptional hard decision because they didn't want to eat it the first time, which is why we have so many leftovers.
Each child finally made a decision and began eating. That was mildly surprising but the real jolt was about to happen...dessert!
What kid in the entire world doesn't want to eat dessert? Each kid ate their dinner and so we wanted to reward them for eating. So Michelle whips out the pie and ice cream. Sounds good, right? Well our boys literally started throwing fits, crying, moaning and wailing about having to eat dessert! More specifically, they didn't want to eat the pie (Razzle Berry Pie). Michelle had cut a thin sliver of pie for each boy, put it in a bowl and added ice cream. The boys acted as if the ice cream had been contaminated. David grudgingly ate his piece of pie but Donovan and Michael couldn't be coerced into eating their sliver of pie.
I really had to fight the feeling to laugh out loud when David first started throwing his tantrum over having his ice cream contaminated by the sliver of Razzle Berry Pie. He started to wail and moan and even created some crocodile tears. Truly an unexpected moment in the evening.
Does anyone else have kids that have issues with dessert?
