(A little back-ground story....Cassidee hasn't been eating well lately. She won't hardly eat anything. We usually give her a favorite or two, plus a veggie that she doesn't care for too much....)
Mommy: Cassidee, as soon as you eat everything on your plate, you're going upstairs to take a nap.
Cassidee: (after eating everything except a few grapes and her peas) I'm ready to take a nap now.
M: No, you still have to finish your peas. I don't care if you sleep in the chair, you're not getting up until they're gone.
(Don't turn me in for being mean either....I only gave her 4 peas....)
Then I left the kitchen for 10 minutes to put Cason in bed and to fold a basket of laundry.
This is what I found when I returned.......
You might think that the story ends here and she won for falling asleep at the table.....WRONG!She was faking. It was kinda funny because I really did think she was asleep. 2 minutes after snapping the pictures, and a few tears, the peas were gone and she was in bed!
Yet another small victory for mommy!

Who keeps teaching here this trickery? I know its not me.
Oh my goodness...that is HILARIOUS!!! Thanks for the laugh!
Oh my goodness... that little cutie pie STINKER! Faking asleep??!!! Crazy. Way to win, though, Mommy. :)
PS. If you are missing a Nemo cup like that princess one, we have it. No idea where it came from....
She must get that from her Daddy, because you would NEVER do anything like that :) And isn't she just too smart for her own good? Miss y'all, can't wait to see you again!
i believe her daddy and i had a similar battle over peas. he had to sit at the table for several hours only to tell me a few years ago he never did eat them, he gave them to the dog when i was'nt looking. Her stubborness must be inherited
You go girl!!!
You are hilarious! Love it!
How funny!!!! haha :) Way to stick to your guns, Mom!!!
