I am writing this the day after. Last night we were eating dinner and as usual Ethan was being fussy. He didn’t want to eat anything accept what we were eating. Ethan would make faces and point at Krystie’s plate as if he really wanted what she was eating.
Krystie had cooked corn on the cob on the BBQ. Ethan pointed at the cob like it was the most amazing thing he had ever seen. Krystie gave him the whole cob to try, but he couldn’t really bite it. So, with a stroke of genius Krystie did the next best thing any parent would do. Step by step…
- Steam some loose corn niblets.
- Pile the loose corn niblets on a section of the cob that you have already eaten.
- Hand the cob to your son to enjoy.
It was one of the funniest things I had ever seen. He ate the niblets off the cob and was so proud of himself.
