Drug Addict

Sariah LOVES medicine, or anything we call "medicine" (such as apple juice, or a fig newton, or even a hug).

When she's legitimately sick, all I have to say is "Let's go get you some medicine."

She RUNS to the kitchen and points up to the cupboard, where we have her Tylenol and Motrin stashed on the highest shelf of the highest cupboard.

Well...

Sariah saw her cousin, Emerson, get some Tylenol this morning.

She didn't get any.

She threw a fit.

Crocodile tears, screams, banging her head on the floor, grab mommy's pants and pull her back in to the kitchen, laying on the floor sobbing fit.

So what did I do?

Let her play with the medicine. She didn't get any, but she was perfectly content to play with the syringes and bottle.

Our little drug addict.

Lorelai absolutely LOVES taking medicine too. I think it's because she sees Rea getting some twice a day and she feels left out. Her eyes get so big when she sees it coming and opens her mouth really wide as to not miss one drop. Fun stuff.
