Asparagus aka Greenies

C ate asparagus tonight. I cut up one piece and put it on his plate next to his mashed potatoes and chicken. He proceeded to wolf down the potatoes and then slowly eat his chicken. I told him to try the asparagus and he said, "No Mom, I try this [pointing to the chicken]." We had this conversation three times. Then all of the sudden he looked down at his plate and decided to pick up a piece of asparagus. It went right in his mouth! Then he looked at me and said, "Mom, I try again." He tried all four times [four pieces]! Of course he didn't want anymore than that, but he did get ice cream when he was finished. Yay!

I thought for a second he was going to say he did not want to eat "Junior".
