note to self:

Don't use the rhyme "open your mouth and close your eyes, and you will get a nice surprise!" to get your toddler to take a bite of food. Said toddler will expect a surprise after gagging down the spoonful.

I thought the surprise was the bite of food, but that's not what she thought. Through sniffles and tears, she managed a "where's my surprise, mommy?"

I expected that to backfire differently... like she'd start doing it to you.
