not that smart

So, since I am her mother, I have always thought that Brookie was very very smart. Borderline genius probably! Well, last night there was proof that she is not there yet. I made chicken enchiladas for dinner, which were divine!(thanks Linda for the recipe). For some odd reason Brookie did not want to eat them, along with her veggies. I was about to give up when a light bulb came on, "just trick her!". YES, I tricked her into eating her dinner, and it worked! I kept putting two bites on the edge of the plate and saying, "do you want this one, or that one". I thought I might get a few bites down but she was fooled for the whole plate! It's funny cause she is usually not a picky eater so this is one of my first times using trickery to get her to eat her food. Maybe I'm the genius!!!
