I have the strangest boys ever! How many boys out there love cold cereal? Mine don't. Let me tell you, I have tried all kinds. One is too crunchy, one is too soggy, one is just too gross. So finally I just picked one that I liked when I was a kid 'Life Cereal'. I really like it now too. But I am eating 'Kashi Go Lean Crunch' on cereal mornings, just because! Anyway, so every week when it is cereal morning (basically the mornings we are in a rush and I can't make the chocolate chip pancakes or waffles) I cringe thinking how am I going to so delicately offer the oh so yummy cold cereal I know they love so much. Well this morning I offered Kaden the Life cereal, he said, "I don't like it". I said, "How do you know, you have never tried it?" Kaden said, "I don't like strawberries." The child has never tried strawberries or any fruit for that matter. Don't ask me, he is the weirdest kid around (next to Jaxon). I love fruit and try to offer my kids fruit all the time. Kaden is so stubborn he will not eat anything if you tell him it is fruit. Vegetables on the other hand he will try? I know, I know so weird. So anyway, I proceeded to tell him, "there are no strawberries in the cereal." He says, "why are there strawberries on the packages then?" I said, "I don't know to make it look pretty?" Needless to say, he tried it and really likes it now.
Fast forward two days later, again it is a busy morning and I tell Gregg we can have cereal, I made the boys pancakes. Gregg proceeds to say, "I don't like that cereal." "What?" I say. He says, "I hate berries!" Once again, there are berries on the package......not in the cereal!
Do boys ever grow up?
