😂 My daughter flatly refused to eat broccoli, and the answer she gave made my husband and me burst out laughing.
My daughter is very picky, and I often have to force her to eat healthy foods. One day, I served her broccoli.
She looked at her plate with disgust and said, “No, I don’t want to!”
She protested by pushing her plate away.
I looked at her, calm but firm. “You know, darling, these broccoli are good for you. They make you strong and healthy. If you want to grow and run around like you do, you need to eat your vegetables.”
She frowned and replied, “But I don’t like it.”
I took a deep breath and continued, “I understand that it may not taste great at first, but these broccoli have vitamins that will help you have plenty of energy.”
To set an example, I ate a piece of broccoli and said, “You want to be as strong as mommy, right?”
She sighed deeply and, after a moment, said something that made my husband and me burst out laughing.

After a moment of thought, my daughter looked at the broccoli, then turned to me with a determined look and said, “This is not food, these are trees!”
I nearly choked from laughing, but I had to keep a straight face so I wouldn’t encourage her.
“Trees?” I asked, trying not to smile.
She stared at me, arms crossed, and added firmly, “I’m not a dinosaur, I’m a baby, okay?!”
My husband and I couldn’t hold back our laughter.
It was so cute, and at the same time, so logical to her.
