The joys of motherhood

I discovered how to instantaneously ruin your 6 year old's morning- Serve him oatmeal.

I have not had good luck in the past getting anyone to eat this, but I decided to try again. Let's just say it did not go well.

There was lots of complaining.

There was lots of gagging. I thought he might make himself vomit.

There were questions like, "Why do I have to eat this?"

There was crying.

He did finally eat 6 bites very, very reluctantly.

I don't think we are going to have oatmeal anytime soon.
