a Cale anecdote

Cale hates his vegetables. Holy cow, he acts like it's killing him when we tell him he has to eat, like, 4 green beans or one carrot. Case and point, tonight for dinner, Andy served the boys raw carrots and ranch dressing as their veggie. Andy specifically told Cale that he would not be able to play his gameboy (everyone has one now) until he ate his 1 carrot. HALF AN HOUR LATER, Cale has manage to eat his 1 BABY carrot. Okay, now he can get up and leave the table-everyone else having finished their food probably 15 minutes ago. Cale goes outside and is acting a little secretive. Andy investigates. Cale has not swallowed his carrot! He has it chewed up in his mouth! A little gross, I know. But, that is how stubborn Cale can be. Where does he get that from? It can't be me, can it? It must be the red hair. But, I guess he gets that from me too...
