This morning I woke up and I simply did not want to eat. Why this was such a foreign concept to my mother, I do not know. She was acting like I eat around the clock. Like I can't get up and just start my morning like a normal human being- reading the paper or something. Like I HAVE to hit the old milk truck first thing. Sheesh! I'm not addicted you know. She tried and tried to get me to nurse but take a hint mom, I wasn't hungry. She couldn't take the suttle hints of arching my back and turning my head so I had to get vocal. Did I want to? No. Never. But I was pushed. She quit trying and we read a couple books and I thought the morning was going more my way. Leisurely, you know? Then she put me in my chair. Again with the force-feeding. *sighs and shakes head* The woman can be so lost at times. She offered me my favorites. Bananers. Sweet potaters. Oaties. I took a couple spoonfuls of the oaties just to appease her. All morning it didn't stop. Eat eat eat eat eat. I mean, I've seen myself in the mirror here- I'm hardly wasting away. I took my morning nap like a good kiddo ma-griddo. Got up and there was mom again trying to get me to drink some milk. I guess she figures that in 8 months there is no conceivable way that I could be sick and tired of milk 3 times a day? Has she ever thought of that? I guess not. We went the same rounds. All my favorites the oatmeal- I wasn't having it. Mom started acting a little crazy- calling a bunch of people telling them I wouldn't eat. I know she's worried my cheeks are just going to melt right off my face if I don't eat. Gaaaawwww-lee. After she calmed down we went to the Post Office and came home. I played a little, jumped in my horse and then I was ready for my afternoon snoozer. I got up about a quarter to 6.
And ate.
Mom and Dad are always raving about breakfast for dinner. I wanted to try it.
Weird! I hope it was just a fluke. I'd be worried, too, if I was your mommy. And I'm proud of you for your marathon naps.
