    Luckily it was from a minor eye irritation, not from sadness! When she is sad and crying, she cannot talk at all for the wailing. My threenager.

    "Omg khubz arabi I love it you eat it with zayt and zaatar and zaytoon mmmmm it's 'delicious'".

    The "omg", the Arabic and the actual English word "delicious" was a hilarious combination.

    She’s spot on! I love that stuff. I picked up a huge bag of Zaatar a couple of weeks ago with some laban and khubz. Funny thing, the Muslim guy behind the counter who rang me out looked at me, looked down at my items, then looked back at me again like “how the hell do you know about this??” When I gave him my debit card, he read off my full Arabic name aloud and smiled.

    When I was little I ate sumac off the trees in my mother's yard, and she would dose me with ipecac when she caught me. She made me puke probably a hundred times for eating sumac, until I learned to hide it from her. There is a poisonous variety, but that is not what we had, and she had no idea there were different kinds.
    No one was happier than I when I found out I wasn't the only one who liked it, and that I could buy it at the store, if I were at the right sort of store!

    I'm complaining about her being picky with food, more particularly picky about what is eadible or not depending on how the food looks and especially what colour it has. I'm reminding her that I never complained even once as a kid (which is actually true) and ate anything that was served, and that life would be far easier for both her and me if she just stopped with the very many weird ideas about food she has. Her answer: "Well, I already know that, grandma already told me (said in a very annoyed tone of voice, but what comes next is far more preachy). We are all different, we are born different and we like and think different thinks, you know..."

    As you see, food is a very big issue for us lately... on the bright side, I finally got my hands on some tahina and pomegrenate molasses this week so we both rejoiced and feasted on baba ghanouj and khobz arabi, wa lillahil hamd.

    Trick her into trying a few samples of food which tastes great, according to what you know she may like or not, which looks horrible. Get her to close her eyes or blind folder her. The taste could win her over before seeing what it looks like. You could get her interested in other foods by example. Pig out on some goodies could spark an interest since she sees you enjoying the snack.

    I was babysitting a three year old one time, she was at the age when she was hearing new words and wanted to use them but wasn't really sure what they meant. So we had this conversation:

    Me: "Ok, (kid's name), it's time for your nap now."
    Kid: "Is that SENSIBLE?"
    Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for I have a sonic screwdriver, a tricorder, and a Type 2 phaser.

    It is a good question. One needs to evaluate exhaustion or tiredness vs sleeping. Sleeping when not needed could be worse  for one that does not require it.

    I like having logical rounds with my kids. Today one of them said ¨Well, you are what, like ninety years old? Okay, maybe eighty-seven?¨ You have to hold back so much. You want to just pop back with stuff like how it is biologically impossible for me to be their mother and be that age. But three years old is a bit too young for the talk, no matter what my own mother thought. I have nightmares of them educating the daycare. It's bad enough that they know Santa is a lie.

    She was 3. This was like nearly 15 years ago. It was "common knowledge" where I grew up that kids that age need a nap. Another interesting story involving her: she had two older sisters, and I would babysit them too sometimes although most of the time I just babysat her. One time when I was babysitting her and her siblings, her sister got violently ill really suddenly, she got a really high fever and started convulsing. I freaked out and tried to call her parents, but her mom was at a funeral and her dad was at work (he was an army doctor, but stationed locally) so neither of them answered. So I tried to bring down her fever, made her drink water, and generally panicked. None of the other parents of small kids in the neighborhood were home and calling an ambulance would mean leaving the other two kids unattended, so I didn't know what else to do. Anyway, then the littlest one came up to me and said "I'm going to play barbies while (sick kid) is shaking herself." Which brought a tiny bit of humor to the situation and then profound existential angst because she had no idea how good she had it, she had no idea what death was, and I was seriously freaked out about her sister's condition. The kid who was sick got better tho! So it all worked out fine in the end.

    She starts telling me about the dream she had, but she calls the city we are currently living in for "mascara" for some reason or the other (which was part of the dream). I interrupt her, snickering, "honey, it's not mascara, it's ******** OK?". She looks at me for a while without saying anything, with a seious face, and then all of a sudden "...hey, cut it out. This was a scary dream you know..." Cheesy I had to bite my tounge not to LOL and piss her off Cheesy

    Those febrile seizures are terrifying, and it seems miraculous that usually there is no damage. Even knowing that does not make it any easier to watch.

    I heard my niece come in when I was eating peanuts.
    She looked at me and my Aunty and everyone in the room and  exclaimed.
    "My mommy love penis! (Peanuts) She eats it everyday!"

    Needless to say I laughed. Hah

    Kiddo grits her teeth and mutters "urrggh.. I want to crush...crush his soul.."

    A while after she whispers quietly, mostly to herself, "I think I have to fart...ohh it was a silent one... akkhhh, I shouldn't have said anything..."

    Most of the time, I'm both amused and freaked out by the things she says.
