We had two HUGE breakthroughs this afternoon.

First, he tried (and subsequently loved, of course) a grilled cheese sandwich, which he had never been willing to touch before.

And even better, halfway through, he asked if he could fold it "like a sandwich." Prior to today, he would ONLY eat things open-faced, and wouldn't even pick up a sandwich presented with two slices of bread. Even if you pulled the halves apart again, he would still refuse to eat it. But today, today, he folded his "bread with cheese" (because calling it a "sandwich" is a deal-killer) in half and ate it.

I will persist in shoving out of my mind how pathetic it is that he's 3 and he just ate a sandwich for the first time in his life.
