Toddler sharing

Toddler: Can I have a candy mom?

Me: Sure honey, but just one.
Toddler: Okay. Thanks mom!



Later, after she has sorted through what is left of the Halloween grossness ...

Toddler: Here mom, I brought you a brown tootsie roll and I get to have a pink one.
Me: Thank you honey, that's sweet of you to share.

Later, after she has finished her pink one and notices my brown one is still sitting next to me ...

Toddler: Mom, how come you haven't eaten your tootsie roll?
Me: Well, actually honey, I don't really like tootsie rolls.
Toddler: Why?
Me: They just aren't my favorite. I'd rather have a chocolate or something if I am going to have a treat.
Toddler: Oh. *pause* Well, do you just want me to eat it then?

Ever the generous gifter she is. :)
