So I was standing at the counter today and I hear Ava taking a drink of water out of a sports bottle. Then I hear her whine and this is the conversation:
Ava: Ow! My mouth is hurting.
Me: I'm sorry. You gotta be careful with that bottle so it doesn't pinch your lip.
Ava: My mouth is hurting.
Ava: (moving over to the drawer where I keep the Skittles) I need some candy to feel better.
Me: What did you say?
Ava: (holding on to the drawer where I keep the Skittles) I need some candy to make it feel better.
Me: (busting out laughing and reaching into the Skittle drawer!) You are hilarious! And dang smart! And that deserves candy.
Apparently Mary Poppins was onto something with the whole "sugar" and "medicine" thing! Either that or Ava has watched her mom make herself feel better with candy!!!
