Vegetarian??

Caleb refuses to eat meat. He won't eat chicken, fish, or steak, he just spits them out. This has been going on for about a week or so now. He will whine and cry at dinner if we try to give him meat but as soon as we give him fruit or veggies or bread he will smile and eat it all. If he had his way all that he would eat is fruit, frozen peas and carrots and peanut butter sandwiches. So now we have to figure out what to do about it, do we force him to eat meat and not let him have other options or do we just give in for now since this could be a phase. If we try to only give him certain foods that he refuses to eat then will he eventually eat them because he is hungry or just not eat? If we just give in will he think that he can get away with just eating certain foods? This is when the real parenting starts to happen.

Other news. I have 2 hurt fingers. One I slammed in the car door and the other got squished between a railroad tie and the car. Maybe if I go to the Dr. I can go on medical leave and not have to work summer school...that would be nice.
