This weekend we took our son out for pizza.
Francisco my son who is four years old has always been quite picky when it comes to eating, this has motivated me to be quite creative and varied when it comes to cooking his meals. One of the meals that I had offered him on several occasions was pizza, but he had never wanted to try it.
I had cooked it at home, so that he would try it because I am aware that he has to have a good balanced and varied diet, but despite my attempts I had always failed to get him to try it. Even his aunt and grandmother have also cooked this delicious food for him, but they had always been heartbroken when he rejected it and would not even try a bite.
So, I was overly excited when this weekend we took him out for ice cream, and I asked him, do you want to have pizza?
He said yes, and we ordered the margarita because it only had salsa and cheese on it, even though I wasn't sure he would eat it. Then I was even more surprised when, without saying a word, he took a bite of pizza in his mouth and ate it.
You can't imagine how excited I was! I am happy, because my son has had a little trouble trying new foods. However, this action he did with the pizza gives me to understand that he is growing very fast and that the efforts I have made to give him a varied and balanced diet are working.
Este fin de semana llevamos a nuestro hijo a comer pizza.
Francisco mi hijo que tiene cuatro años siempre ha sido bastante selectivo a la hora de comer, esto me ha motivado a ser bastante creativa y variada a la hora de cocinar sus comidas. Una de las comidas que le había ofrecido en varias ocasiones era la pizza, pero nunca había querido probarla.
La había cocinado en casa, para que la probara porque soy consciente de que tiene que tener una buena dieta equilibrada y variada, pero a pesar de mis intentos siempre había fracasado a la hora de que la probara. Incluso su tía y su abuela también le han cocinado esta deliciosa comida, pero siempre les había roto el corazón cuando la rechazaba y no probaba ni un bocado.
Por eso, me emocioné demasiado cuando este fin de semana lo llevamos a tomar un helado, y le pregunté: ¿Quieres comer pizza?
Dijo que sí, y pedimos la margarita porque sólo llevaba salsa y queso, aunque no estaba segura de que se la fuera a comer. Luego me sorprendí aún más, cuando sin decir una palabra, se llevó un bocado de pizza a la boca y se la comió.
¡No se imaginan la emoción que sentí! Estoy contenta, porque a mi hijo le ha costado un poco probar nuevos alimentos. Sin embargo, esta acción que hizo con la pizza me da a entender que está creciendo muy rápido y que los esfuerzos que he hecho para que tenga una dieta variada y equilibrada están funcionando.
