Suckers and Stickers

I am so thankful for a country where we have access to such great medical care and doctors. I really like the girls' pediatricians. It is a very small office with two doctors. Very homey, nice staff, and they have plenty of suckers and stickers......the perfect items to bribe a two year old to pee in a cup. I also love the innocence of a two year old who is so excited and desperate for a cheap, sugar-free sucker, that she will hold her tears in when the doctor checks her ears, something she has never done. I am trying to savor this period of innocence. "Mommy!! A POPSICLE!!!!!" (said as she jumps up and down) Who else would get so excited about a popsicle? "Mommy, black kool-aid!?" (she thought the tea I was making was black kool-aid) I love it!
