Keira is playing with a new bottle of Nurofen I bought that morning for Riley (seriously – 2 year old molars at 15 months? Yes, it happens).
Keira: What’s this for?
Me: It’s Riley’s pain medicine. He takes it before bed.
Keira: Before bed?
Me: Yes, before bed.
Keira: (confused) Be…fore……bed?
Me: (frustrated) Yes, before bed!
Silence. We both simmer over our miscommunication. Until I realise what it is she’s been talking about.
Me: Yes, Keira, ‘B’ is for bed. ‘B’ for bed. Ha! What are the chances of that?
Ya, gettit?!
