how many more bites? *revised

Drew: Can I have my dessert now?

Me: No. You need to eat your lunch if you're hungry. Dessert comes later.

Drew: Now can I eat it?

Me: No! I told you, if you're too full to finish your lunch then we can save the dessert for after nap. If you finish your sandwich now THEN you can have the dessert.

[eats a couple more bites...but not nearly all of his sandwich]

Drew: Mom, now, don't make your mad face when I ask you...but, can I have dessert now?

Me: Don't do what?! ha ha ha ha Silly Drew, just finish your lunch!

[eats his whole sandwich but now is too full to eat his dessert. and even though I keep telling him he can save it for later...he just keeps picking at it.]

*After he was done eating his sandwich and had started on his dessert (a nutty bar that comes in packs of two) he told me that I could have the other bar. Just because. Just because he's the sweetest boy in town.
