My youngest does not like green beans, but each time they are served must eat a few. Tonight, we had noodles and green beans for dinner. We also happened to be talking about getting the kids vision checked when the following exchange happens:
Me: You know, my vision is getting bad and I didn't see you eat your three green beans...
Youngest: Well, I did.
Me: Yeah, but I didn't see it, so you'll need to do it again...
Youngest: (Pointing to the noodles) See, here's a bean. (Proceeds to eat it while making a scrunchy face)
Me: I might not be able to see that well, but that was a noodle just based on color
Youngest: (Whispering to Mom) How can we paint these green?

Poor kids, poisoning them with green beans! So, I've gotta know, did the wife figure out how to make the noodles green? She is after all, SUPERMOM (wife of SUPERDAD)!
Alas, we did not break down and use food coloring on the noodles (ideas the children must come up with on their own if they are to succeed and prosper in life)

He should have used the color blind excuse, it always works for his uncle. :)
