We have no idea where the dramatic flair as come from, but he has one! I had made dinner and baked some sweet potatoes, thinking it would be a nice treat. Well everyone ate them and loved them- but my firstborn. Now we have a rule in the house, that if it is something new then you have to try it and if you don't like it then you don't have to eat it. Well he had to take at least 4 bites (a real good try). He was making himself gag, trying to convince me that it was making him sick. A fit ensued, mom stood firm knowing full well that he was faking the sick thing, firstborn gives in (and actually likes it) and proceeds to eat the whole thing!

Haha, I love it!! Brings back memories as firstborn:-) I still don't like sweet potato though, unless it is in a pie!
That is too funny! Especially since he liked it! Veggies can be good!
