When I was a little girl, my dad used to tell my brother and me that adult beverages were his medicine (which now as a parent I see the irony in it. There are some nights when a cold beer does seem a bit medicinal). It was completely unintentional, but the first time Kirby asked me for a sip of my beer, I told him he couldn't drink it because it was "mommys medicine"! Thanks, dad!!!
Well tonight, Keith was having a glass of wine with dinner. Kirby, of course, asked for a sip of daddy's juice. Keith responded that it was daddy's medicine and Kirby couldn't have any. Kirby gave it a few seconds and looked Keith right in the eye and said, "you're not drinking medicine. You're drinking wine."
Busted!!!

ReplyDeleteReferring to an adult beverage as medicine does not appear to work for Kirby as well as it did for Michael and you.
