Truth In Toddlers

[selenite0]

On returning home after drill I flopped on the couch to catch up with celticdragonfly on her (less pleasant) day. As we were chatting our two year old wandered up and offered me an M&M. I approve of her generosity, but if she's got access to a candy bag we're in trouble. So I asked "Where did you get that?"

She proudly replied, "From my mouf!"

Yep, honest answer.

I'd have gone with the follow up question,"Where was it before it was in your mouth?"

I think the likely answers could have included:
1)The couch
2)The floor
3)Under the fridge

My curiosity had been sated.

He would have had to stop laughing hysterically before the two year old wandered off.

Miles did promptly go check likely places she could have gotten it from.

Excellent

Gotta love the way kids see the world.
