I know.....vegetables don't grow on trees. That title fits the post better, though....
I had to drag 5 children to 3 different doctors appointments this week. I used a bag of suckers to convince them to behave each time (because I am NOT above bribery.)
After one of the appointments, they were looking through the bag, trying to decide which delectable flavor to try.
Mikaily: "I want pink!"
Evan: "Me too!"
Kyle: "Mom, aren't these sugar?"
Me: "Yes, they are."
Kyle: "Daddy says sugar isn't good and it doesn't make you strong."
Me: "Sugar tastes good, but it isn't good for you."
Kyle: "Oh, ok. I think I want a green sucker. Green is like a vegetable and so it is better for me."
That's my boy! I have taught him well. :)

Kyle is one smart little cookie. ;)
That is a kid that speaks my language!!!! Ha Ha I love it :)
I love it! I should start thinking that way! :) If it's green it's healthy- I can do that!
now that's my kind of logic! smart kid!
THAT'S why my kids don't like green suckers!
What a cutie Kyle is! I love the picture of the suckers- it is sooo fun! Have a great weekend!
Does that work for green frosting, too?
Isn't that obvious? :) Green = vegetable, if you eat anything at someone else's house they get the calories, having fruit with dessert cancels out the calories, and bicuits with raisins in are positively healthy!

I think he would make an excellent nutritionist when he grows up.. He could write a book.. I'd buy it, and follow it religiously if all of his tips and hints made as much sense this.. lol...
