Big

Charlie likes what eats to be Big, which means whole. There have been many-o-tears over quartering his grapes, chopping his broccoli, dicing his chicken. Big is a problem because if I cut anything, I can't jigsaw it back together without getting busted. But the bigger Big issue is that if I serve something in its entirety and my dear son takes a bite (gasp!), to his dismay it's no longer Big. The horror, the outrage, the injustice!

Even warm chocolate chip cookies aren't precluded from Big expectations.
