this morning, before giving ben his banana at breakfast, i took a bite.
he freaked out. big time. tears. hysteria. anger. red face. on the ground. saying he wanted that piece. and i took it. and he wanted it.
i couldn't believe it. was so baffled. and could hardly take his tantrum over a banana seriously.
so i did what any mommy bird would have done. i spit out the chewed up banana into my hand and gave it to him.
and he ate it.
gross.
i think he was just trying to prove a point.
i don't know what his point was.

About Lindsay
Foreward (By an anonymous, bossy friend): My friend Lindsay is a witty, insightful, honest writer and I'm forcing her to start a blog. I think that the stories she has, the life she experiences and her outlook on most things is worthy of being shared. She is quotable. I quote her a lot. She is funny. I laugh out loud at the e-mails she sends me. Post #1 here is an e-mail she sent me. Oh, and Sweet Ben is how she refers to her first born, a big source of her happiness and inspiration for many of her more recent stories.

we have had many a screaming fit over mommy eating the banana top. took me about 5 different episodes of this to realize that i always ate the tops of every banana i gave to frank. i gave in on this one and now i let him eat them. ben and frank, if they were only together, what trouble they would get into.
HA. We have had MANY a you-bit-my-food-without-asking-and-ruined-its-wholeness tantrums too. Oh gracious. I love your response. And his to yours.
