As a PTing reward, DD1 is getting M&Ms when she uses her potty. All of the other colors are no problem, but for some reason the blues turn her hands blue (she keeps them in her hands for a while - so much for not melting in your hands...). And then I have to wash them quickly or she gets blue on herself, my clothes, the furniture, etc.
So tonight I'm going to have to go through the M&Ms bag and eat all the blues so I avoid giving them to her.
Being a mom is tough sometimes.
ETA: "reward" was missing...
Re: The things you do for your kids...
Haha! No, I'm serious about the blues running. :-) Also, I would never, ever even think of telling her I'm eating all the blue ones. She'll never even notice that she's not getting any more of them. This blue-eating event is something that is happening right now as she's in bed :-)
But if in my search I try to grab a blue and another color gets stuck to my hand... well... no guarantees that it's going back in the bag!!
