Oh Honey Bear

Let's say you spend a shocking amount of money on a special straw cup that is supposed to help your child develop straw sucking abilities that are supposed to help him succeed in many other areas of life even though the cup is basically a recycled honey container with a straw stuck in it.

And every time you try to use it your child does this:

And you can't push it because you don't want it to become this horrible experience that will forever make straws an evil monster that makes your child scream for Jesus to come whenever he sees one.  So, you do what parents always do to get their kids to do stuff they don't want to do, make a game.

I'll let you know if he ever actually sips out of the straw, in fact I will have a party and you all will be invited.  But until then, I count it as a very wonderful success that he put the straw in his mouth.  Did you see that?  Straw in mouth? No tears? THAT is a great success.
