I was preparing Lincoln's snack this morning and asked him what he wanted. His teacher only allows fresh fruits or vegetables (no fruit cups or crap like that), so he usually takes something of the fruit variety. He went for months only eating apples. Then it was grapes for awhile, then bananas. Once he asked me if he could take a vegetable (I think the attendance question of the day was asking if they brought a fruit or a veggie) so he took frozen peas (complete with freezer packs to keep them frozen).
Anywho, today I asked him what he wanted and he asked me if we had any lettuce. Ummm, yea, I have some lettuce. "I want some lettuce in a baggie" he tells me. What? This is the kid that never touches salad and has never in his 5 3/4 years expressed any interest in lettuce whatsoever. So I asked if he was sure. He said he wanted to taste it. So he came to the sink and devoured a leaf of romaine. He proclaimed it delicious and we negotiated how many leaves he could have (settled on 4). I can't wait to see if he's ravenously hungry after school!
Bizarre little child.
