Waffles Part 2

This morning went well...

Micah didn't mind the substitute of gf/cf pancakes this morning for breakfast. Not too much of a surprise since he has had them before when I have run out of waffles and not had time to go to TJ's. He didn't get through day, however, without asking for waffles.

I know, it sounds odd, but he saw that I went to TJ's (he saw the bags) and he assumed that I would have waffles. Since he didn't have any this morning, he asked for another fave: peanut butter and jelly sandwich on banana waffles.

The meltdown began. It doesn't look like we will be getting any homework done this afternoon, and he had a minimum day at school today. So far he has screamed and thrown things and cried. I offered (before the fit really got into gear) the plain waffles and he said that they were Becca's. He wanted the banana smell. He knows that if they smell like bananas, they are on his diet (I haven't ever bought any regular banana flavored waffles). He doesn't like having things off his diet. I'm pretty sure he doesn't feel good when he accidentally gets gluten or casien. I had him read the box, but it didn't work.

I thought I had him calmed down after giving him a snack of a different kind, but then I decided to ask him to do his homework...apparently he wasn't all the way calmed down.

Now he is laying on the floor screaming. His life is disrupted. I blame Trader Joe's.
