I think by now you all know my morning struggle with my son to have something new for breakfast! LOL
He really isn’t a breakfast kind of person, and he’s a picky eater… can you guess who’s genes are dominant ?? :p.
Anyway, so the kids were up at 6 am on a Friday and surprisingly I was feeling pretty energetic. So we went down to the kitchen, the sun wasn’t even up yet, and I pulled out a pack of blueberries and I showed my son. I asked him how about we make blueberry pancakes (I’ve been secretly craving them for a while), and against all odds he said SURE!!!
I couldn’t believe it, maybe both of us were just having a good morning! He loves helping out in the kitchen, and I think when he does he feels more encouraged to try new food! Im so glad for my little assistant that morning because he ended up loving them and asks for them every weekend now :):).
