Today I don't like vegetables

Hubs, aka To Become Dad, has started writing a series of poems about and for Ethan, to capture the funny little quirks of his character. I think they also perfectly sum up life with a toddler / preschooler and I'm sure plenty of other parents can relate.

Here's the first poem that started the whole thing off - hands up who has a child just like this...?!


Today I don't like vegetables
But you've put them on my plate
Today I don't like vegetables
Even though yesterday they were great

Today I don't like vegetables
Like carrots, broccoli or peas
And don't think I don't notice 
When you cover them in cheese

Today I don't like vegetables
But I can see them with my eye
Today I don't like vegetables
And it's going to make me cry

Today I don't like vegetables
It's filling me with sorrow 
But maybe if you try again
I'll eat vegetables tomorrow
