Everyone pretty much knows that Laura is an extremely picky eater. We aren’t certain where she got this trait from, with the exception of only a very few items Sam and I eat everything. Her pickiness started pretty much the day she started eating solid food. She refused to eat most of the baby food including the “desserts”. The only thing she would eat out of a baby food jar was sweet potatoes, witch could account for her lifelong obsession with the color orange. Unlike most picky eaters Laura isn’t swayed by sugar content, she knows what she likes and therefore it doesn’t matter if you call what she refuses to eat a “treat” or a “desert”. The only thing that she will eat under any circumstance, weather it was covered in frosting or dirt is chocolate.
As you can imagine because of this life can get pretty difficult at our house around meal time. But in the last month a strange phenomenon has happened, Laura, one of the most stubborn children in the world, has started trying new things. I wish I could brag and tell you that being the wonderful parents that we are Sam and I came up with a creative way to gets Laura trying new foods. But the truth is like potty training Laura decided when she was going to do this on her own. Therefore I’m proud to announce that Laura, world’s pickiest eater, now eats “sausage sandwiches” or what the rest of the world refers to as hamburgers, with actual ketchup on in.
