Pilgrim Dexter

 Dexy had no problem eating his pasta and broccoli but he refused chicken parm and the sweet potatoes he had made with Daddy. After eating his pasta, Dexy asked me if he could have pie and I told him he needed to eat his broccoli first. He said, "How about I eat one broccoli?" I said, "How about you eat three?"  And he said, "OK" and proceeded to eat the broccoli on his plate.
The other Moms were staring at us in disbelief. As one woman said, "I can't believe that worked!  I can't get my kid to eat anything," her son turned to her and said, "I want to eat broccoli." The surprised look on her face was priceless! She got him some broccoli and he ate every bite. Dexy enjoyed his apple pie for desert.
