Zeke Wins

On Sunday, we decided to have hot cocoa for dessert. Each boy was told that he needed to eat some chicken and some peas during dinner if he wanted dessert.

Victor complied. He likes chicken and peas.

Zeke ate the chicken, but complained that his peas had sauce on them, and were therefore inedible.

I encouraged him to eat his peas anyway. He ate two forkfuls, thus earning his dessert.

He then promptly vomited up his entire dinner into his lap.

He wasn't sick. It was just too gross for him to eat. I was disgusted/baffled. Jeremy said he used to do the same thing as a kid when food was too gross to eat.

So Zeke won. He vomited his food and got his cocoa anyway because it didn't seem fair to withhold it for involuntary vomiting.

And now I know vomit at the table is a real possibility if Zeke thinks food is gross.

Point to Zeke. Zeke wins.
