Very happy for you. Abbey had her first sweet potato introduced yesterday and she ate one today... very happy. I didn't think she would go for it fresh.

I'm happy for you! I'm having LOTS of experience with trying foods over and over and over... and waiting for them to give in and try it. It usually does work... but it can take a LONG time!
