The Boy has a little song at the moment that he sings, 'A cuddle and a kiss and a walking stick'. As a result when I saw a plastic one filled with sweets recently I bought it for him so he could sing the song properly. I removed the sweets and binned them because they were foul and I may as well just have poured E numbers down his throat. He was slightly disgruntled so I put a few mini eggs in to appease the situation. Over the course of the past fortnight he's eaten them gradually.
The other day he said, "Please could I have one because (with a cheeky smile on his face) I'm greedy?" and so I opened it up and three broken bits (the remaining pieces fell out). He put one in his mouth, I asked if I could have one and he put another in his mouth. I asked again and he looked at me and put the last one in his mouth.
Astounded I pointed out that I'd asked to share them with him and looked at him open mouthed. He promptly took one out of his mouth and put it in my open and disgruntled mouth. Nice hey? At least he shared.

Aww, well it's the thought that counts π
Well done for protecting him from the filthy stuff that comes inside those things too.

Ha ha….mine would do that. I had to eat a half chewed raisin yesterday, I just couldn't resist the cute little face offering it to me!
Susan Mann says
Aww my little one has done that before, but he's getting better at sharing. Yes those sweets aren't the best for little ones, don't know why they make them. x

Lol that is so funny! My daughter did similar to hubby a few weeks back. Then she came running in and told me she'd shared her raisins with Daddy. I'm still undecided whether or not to tell hubby that they were chocolate raisins originally! x

Made me chuckle! x

Kids eh? I regularly gets bits of chewed food stuffed (literally) in my mouth by my 18 month old. I try and discretely remove it while thanking him for sharing with me. Got to love 'em!
