Eat your vegetables!

Our kids could not be more different as far as their likes and dislikes of different foods.  We were having stir fried broccoli the other night, and they were drenched in soy sauce.  Thinking that the kids would like this, we asked the girls to try a little teensy bit of broccoli.  Oh the moaning that ensued!

Here is Eliana eating her piece of broccoli.  It's about the size of a jelly bean, but you'd think we were feeding her something horrible.
And her reaction...
It's all made bearable with copious amounts of milk to wash it down.
 And then there's Karina.   She did not have the fortitude to even stick it in her mouth.
 She actually broke down in tears at the thought of having to eat it.  She ended up not eating it and forgoing dessert.
Gabey, on the other hand, looooves broccoli (as well as bell peppers, olives, and other veggies.)  He eager stuffs his mouth full of broccoli.
And slurps it down to make room in his mouth for more!
