Beans for Breakfast....Please!

This morning the first words out of Jentry's sleepy mouth were "I want noodles......Please!"  Jentry loves pasta of any kind and while she was sick last week, I allowed her to have chicken noodles anytime she wanted.  I think she got in the habit of mommy bringing her whatever she desired whenever she asked.  Instead of testing her two year old temper by simply saying no, I compromised by allowing her noodles for breakfast if she would quickly get dressed and ready for daycare. 

She quickly agreed and got dressed in record time.  I took her to the kitchen and set out two different kinds of noodle soup in cans.  She did not want either one so I said "You will just have to wait and eat breakfast at daycare then with your friends."  No, of course she was not going to accept that!  She then stood in front of the pantry and finally pointed to a can of baked beans.  "I want those....beans."  I asked her if she was sure and she was.  I opened and heated a can of baked beans at 7:00 am.  She proudly ate every last bean in her little pink bowl and happily went to daycare.
