taste_is_sweetOne of my favourite memories from when my sister's kids were even smaller than they are now (I think the girl was two and a half or so, the boy not even a year), was being on the phone with my sister and hearing her suddenly say to her daughter, "stop putting stickers on your brother!"
Oh, how I laughed. I mean, we agreed later that neither of us would have ever thought we'd be saying that to anyone in a million billion years. Obviously children will always, always surprise you.
Well, I didn't think much would beat the 'don't sticker your brother' admonishment until this morning, when I had to tell Jav to stop licking the sole of his shoe.
O.o
Nope, never saw that one coming. And I have to admit I was so horrified at the idea that my 'NO! NOOOOO!' scared him. But seriously--licking your shoe? Who does that?
Three year-olds, apparently. Wow. I can almost see the attraction. Almost. Well, not really.
I explained exactly why I freaked the hell out (amidst much cuddling), and hopefully he won't do it again. ::shudders::
Some days I dread how he'll astound me next....
