Which would you choose?

Before I begin my story I need to let you know a little bit about Andrew.  He is my child with a GIGANTIC sweet tooth!  Getting him to eat dinner or pretty much anything for that matter is close to impossible, but when it comes to something sweet you can't get him to stop.  He will literally make himself SICK!

I think every mom has a story about their children that, no matter where they are or what they are doing, if they think about this story or incident it brings a smile to their face or even a chuckle...out loud.  This is my story...

Well one night Matt decided to finish a piece of leftover cheesecake that was in the fridge.  His mistake, was not waiting until Andrew went to bed before he got it out.  So, of course, Andrew sees this and comes running over.  "Can I have a bite daddy?"  Matt says, "Sure, but I'm sick so you need to go get your own spoon.  I don't want to get you sick with my germs."  "Okay, dad!", and off Andrew runs to the silverware drawer.  I'm watching this whole interaction and see Andrew open the drawer and go for the spoon, but then he stops...

He sees something out of the corner of his eye...

And instead of reaching for the "normal" spoon, he grabs this...

And with a proud smile on his face, marches over to Matt for his "bite" of cheesecake.

Now which would you choose?

I'm with Andrew on this one. I too suffer from wanting to eat everything sweet. Except I make sure that my kids eat their dinner, BEFORE they can have anything sweet. I need to get stricter on myself.
