There are times when Accalia will request something to eat and then stare blankly at me when I ask her what she would like. I'm not sure if she thinks I'm capable of reading her mind and knowing what she wants or if she just wants me to decide for her. I've discovered a way to get her to willingly answer me, though, when she seems without a response. Cory just laughed and groaned when I told him, but it really does work.

Accalia: Mommy, I'm hungry!
Me: What would you like to eat?
Accalia stares blankly or sometimes gives me a puzzled look.
Me: (going into an awful Spice Girls imitation). Tell me what you want, what you really, really want! You want a ...., you want a .....
Accalia: (jumping up and all excited) I want a popsicle (or banana or string cheese or noodles).

So it's made that little part of our day much more fun.
