My Favorite Phase Yet

My 4 year-old has been through a number of food phases.  There was the strawberry milk obsession, for example, and the hot dog craze.  I am happy to report that for the past several months, he has been obsessed with raw vegetables.  Cool, huh?  I hope he doesn't grow out of this one too soon.  In the meantime, I just let myself bask in unearned pride in my parenting skills while he gorges himself on broccoli, even though the more logical part of me has to admit that my parenting really doesn't have anything to do with this and his next food obsession could easily be Twinkies or Cheetos.
