Healthy Food

During homework time yesterday, Josh told me that he was hungry and wanted something to eat.  I gave him some choices: apple, grapes, or pretzels.  He did not like his options.  This lead us into an hour of whining and crying because, as he said "You only want me to eat healthy stuff and I'm tired of eating healthy stuff!"  Rough life.  I asked if he was ready for dinner and after another few minutes of complaining he said that he was but with a stipulation.  "I want REAL dinner, like the kind we have when dad's home." Ok?  Because when he's not home we have...what?  It wasn't worth the argument so I again gave him 3 choices.  Quesadilla, Mac and cheese, or Egg Rolls and Rice.  "Whatever you choose mom" he said.  I guess I can add those to my list of 'real' dinners.  We ended up having quesadilla's and life was right once again.
