Sometimes it feels like I've become so serious now that I'm a Mom- so much discipline, so many "no's." But I had to laugh out loud at Sterling today on our way to pick up Daddy from the train station. I had given him a piece of gum (his favorite) before we left the house and when we were almost there he said, "Sterling floss gum, Mamma." "Oh... Okay honey..." (I have no idea what you just said...)
"Sterling floss gum, Mamma!"
"What do you mean you "flossed your gum?" (Thinking this boded ill for my upholstery, as usual.)
"Sterling flossed de gum down hole, Mamma."
At this point I realized he was telling me he had flushed his gum down his throat! I had a good laugh over that one as I explained that you flush a toilet and swallow food... There really is no difference to a 3-year-old. He just wants to flush something...
