Colm got to celebrate his birthday at school today, and as a special treat, Sean read a book to his class.

Well, I know what Colm would do…he would eat his own vomit. Yep, you read that right. Let me explain. Colm had not gotten a chance to ride in Sean’s new car and he WANTED to-badly! So, tonight during dinner Colm decided he wasn’t going to eat his chicken or his corn or his mashed potatoes and gravy. So, Sean said we could go get custard after dinner if Colm ate his dinner. No deal. Sean then threw in that we would take his new car to get the custard-Colm was ready to eat! So, he started with the chicken which I liberally doused in ketchup. He ate the first bite no problem. He ate the second bite and began to gag uncontrollably until he threw up in his plate. I was laughing so hard (but trying my best to hide it). I told him it was okay to stop, but he was determined to ride in Sean’s car. I guess he was afraid he wasn’t going to win the grand prize if he gave up so he continued to eat. (It reminded me of a weird eating competition on Survivor.) It was gross, but I couldn’t really see too much through the tears. Then I talked him into some corn, but he would only eat the pieces that weren’t “broken”. That was our night at the dinner table.
