Are you smarter than a 2 year old?

William was coughing last night as he was going to bed so he asked Nathan for some medicine. I said that he would probably be fine without any since he slept fine during nap time. William continued to ask for some. Nathan went into the bathroom and filled up a syringe with water and took it to William.


W: Is this water or medicine?

N: It will make you feel better.

W: Is it water? It tastes like water.

N: What do you want it to be?

W: Strawberry medicine.

N: Ok.

W: Mmm. Strawberry water medicine.


Hahahaha! The answer is no. We are not smarter than our 2 year old. Bummer.

Oh my goodness, that is awesome. Evasive parenting techniques, brilliant child responses and the water still worked! So cute.

That is so funny! I love that Nathan didn't want to flat out lie to him, but didn't want to tell him it was water either. That is great!
