not-gonna-eat-em

we're kind of a 2-3 vegetable buying family.
green beans.
corn.
sometimes carrots.

pretty much that's it.
if you look in our pantry,
it's all you're going to find.

the last few times i've offered
green beans
to cooper, he simply replies,
"but i don't like green beans."

sometimes i'll get him to try 1 or 2.
but
tonight he took control of the situation.
he didn't complain.
he just quietly & efficiently
removed each bean from his plate.
then ate his lasagna
every last bite.
