This evening for dinner Cody made omelets for us and the kiddos were absolutely NOT interested in them! No matter how much Cody and I were enjoying the superb omelets they just continued to turn up their noses. In an effort to get Joya Claire to eat at least a few bites I told Caleb "Just p-r-e-t-e-n-d to eat it" (I spelled it out because Joya Claire is getting a little too sophisticated for me to just say it outright) he caught on instantly and started eating imaginary bites with relish. All of the sudden Joya Claire was fascinated with her omelet, she began eating little bites and saying "umm, yummy egg" and "egg is good", she was enjoying it so much that Caleb was becoming interested in trying some also! He started eating little bites and commenting on how wonderful it tasted and this is the child who hasn't eaten egg in two years! It was absolutely hysterical to watch them both succumb to such mild peer pressure, especially Caleb because he knew that Joya Claire only started eating her egg because he had pretended to enjoy his! What funny little ones we share our meals with.
