Guac....Guac.....Guac.....Guacamole!!

Ok, I don't eat guacamole.  Besides the fact that it does not look appetizing to me to begin with (I can hear the outcry of horror that is both displayed on your face and coming out of your mouth), I happen to be allergic to avocados.  I guess, then, it doesn't really matter if I would like it or not, or whether it looks good, or smells good, etc....  I still couldn't touch it or eat it.

But, not all hope is lost.  You know how some people like to live out their life-long dreams through their kids?  You know the ones who make their kids stay at the baseball fields for 8 hours a day while they pitch the ball to them and then yell when they don't do what they want them to do?  The ones who don't care if they like soccer or dance, but make them participate because it's what they wanted to do?  (Really, the parents sucked at it themselves, so they hope their child can fulfill what they weren't able to)  I digress......... 

I will live out everyone who likes guacamole, besides me, dreams and have my kid eat it!  Just kidding, I really would never put my shortcomings onto my own child, at least not intentionally.  But, guess what?  Pierce LIKES it!  I can't say whether or not he loves it as he is unable to verbally communicate just how much he likes/loves it.  My husband was eating chips and guacamole the other night and I told him to let him try it.  He ate it and then held his hands out for more.  Yep, proud of my little boy.  Proud that he is not taking after his mama--who doesn't like to try new foods and pretty much eats the most plain items that exist in this world. 

The proof is in the pudding, or should I say, guacamole!
