Dear Simon,
I know you're far to young to understand what Mommy is telling you. But someday you will look back in awe at a time before you remember... a time when you were strongly encouraged to eat more, to sleep more. I understand you're at least as stubborn as your parents. But someday you'll gain weight just by looking at food. Someday I'll be dragging you out of bed at 4:00 (instead of the other way around) for seminary. Someday you'll beg and plead to be allowed to sleep for just 5 more minutes. Oh, how I wish I could impart this knowledge in you so that when I try to feed you something besides raisins or get you back to sleep at 3:00 am you'd cooperate. But alas...
On the other hand, if you're so not hungry and so not tired, how about you diet and get up and go to work for Mommy. I'll be more than happy to sleep 12 hours a day, waking only to eat and watch Yo Gabba Gabba. Deal?
Love,
Mom
