so it's happening... my realization that my little boy is becoming the little stinker that i was as a kiddo. rough night tonight getting him to bed... it started with the disappointment that we were not watching nemo before bed, then the crying led to "mommy i need some purple medicine". see, purple medicine is the little melt away benedryl tabs that must be pretty tasty. so he's crying, saying "i'm sick, mommy" with every thing he has. when i ask what's wrong, he tells me his tummy hurts, so i explain that benedryl is not for tummy aches. the smart little sucker, still crying, asks "what's purple medicine for mommy", so i explain. then, immediately, he starts coughing.... "mommy i need some purple medicine, i coughed". i couldn't help but laugh while i was hugging my sweet little crying boy trying with all his might to get a little purple medicine... my poor baby. i did meet him halfway and gave a subtherapeutic dose of ty-ty for the original claim of tummy ache. tylenol doesn't have quite the draw, though. sweet little stinker.
