Parent of the Year

Each night when Jillian brushes her teeth, she does it herself and then me or Ryan check them. Sometimes she even calls me, "Dentist Mommy" and I have her lay in my lap so I can get a really good look. (Side note... at very nearly 3, she's finally beginning to break her 2 year molars!).

Anyway... had to share this exchange between sweet Jillian and dentist Mommy last night:

Me: "Okay little girl, do you have an appointment with the dentist?"

Jillian: "Yes, I do!"

Me: "Climb on up so I can check you out."

Me: "Now, what have you been eating, little girl?"

Jillian: "Um... Regular cinnamon rolls, strawberry soda, candy, ice cream treat, apple cinnamon rolls..."

Me (to Ryan): "Oh. Wow. We Are Awesome."

I truly felt like an amazing mother because this list of items had indeed been ingested by my child all in the same day. Hey- she was sick for nearly 6 days and yesterday was the first day she was feeling better. I really wanted to make sure we tested out her tummy and digestion abilities right off the bat.

Really, it was the only responsible thing to do.
