So the question really is "Who won in the long run? Porter or Mom & Dad. You know the apple doesn't drop to far from the tree. Reminds me of someone I know as a little girl.
Ahh! That's a power play you will NEVER win...and that's a voice of experience...from Porter's point of view, that is. I remember more than one meal as a child just like this one (yea, and I'm grateful they didn't have a camera on hand, too!) I vividly remember Mimi telling me that if I had not taken 3 bites of food by the time she finished the dishes I was going straight to bed (it was summer and still very light outside...). She finished the last dish, I got up and went to bed! I also remember her sitting on me (oh yes, sitting on me) forcing my mouth open and shoving a peach in...she KNEW I would like it if I just tried it...well, she was right! She shoved it in, I smiled and said YUM! So, there is hope! XOXO

For the record: Porter sat there for TWO hours and never took a single bite.
