Changes
July 1st, 2008
Why has my very soon to be 3 year old son, Fionn morphed from angelic this:
to this:
Lunchtime today:
Me: “Would you like some toasted ham and cheese sandwiches for lunch Fionn?”
Fionn: “No, I want flat eggs with toast.” (Sibéal’s term for poached eggs)
Me: “Are you sure, I think you’d prefer ham and cheese? I havent seen you eat poached eggs in ages and your other sister and brothers are having ham and cheese”
Fionn: “No, I want flat eggs.”
So I go and cook Sibéal and himself poached eggs and the rest of the kids opt for ham and cheese toasties.
Me: “There you go Fionn, your flat eggs”
Fionn roars: “I wanted ham and cheese” as if I’ve cunningly tricked him into asking for the eggs.
Me: “Grand so.”
Arrggghhh, this may be the start of a very long summer!

ROFL. I’m still a bit like this myself. I get food swings all the time!
Flat eggs is a good term too!

Hey Marie,
It was funny and totally out of character for him as he’s usually quite easy going. Thankfully he’s been in better form since.
