Hallelujah! Last night PAID off!!!!
So, tonight, I sit him down. He already is giving me the "look"
I put his cut up veggie burger in front of him with a little side of ketchup.
He shakes his head no, and points to the fridge (for strawberries)
I say, "No, you need to eat your dinner first!"
And he shook his head no again. I gave him one more little mommy look, and he knew I meant business.
He picked up a piece of burger, popped it into his mouth, and gave me his biggest "Look at me, I'm a good boy!" smile (he has mastered that look!)
We praised him, and he continued to pop bite after bite in his mouth, smiling the whole time.
He ate the WHOLE burger (he never eats that much!!!)
THEN, he handed my his plate and said "Da!" for done!
THEN - he pointed to the fridge!!!! I sad, "Good boy - you are all done - do you want strawberries?"
And he said so triumphantly, "DAh!!!" (Thats Cailen for "Yeah!"  ) and "DeeDees!" (strawberries!!!)
And he got his strawberries tonight! 
After the horrific morning we had together, this really, really, REALLY made my day. It really taught me that this all is for something!!!!
Just wanted to share. For those who supported me, thank you so much. You were right! I wasn't sure how to feel about what happened. But I know now it taught him something!!!!!

honestly, I don;t care about the food so much - I care more that he learned the consequences so quickly..... That means the world to me...
