Toothpaste

Tonight I sent the girls upstairs to get ready for bed.  Five minutes later Gabby comes running down the stairs and asks,
"Mom, does toothpaste kill you if you eat it?"

Me: "No"

Gabby: "What about, does it make you sick?"

Me: "No"

Gabby: "phew"

Gabby turns and runs up the stairs and I hear her tell Charley in that Gabby 'matter of fact' tone that she likes to talk in...

"Mom said it doesn't kill you OR make you sick. You were wrong."

It was pretty funny.  I can only imagine what Charley was up there trying to convince Gabby of before hand. The big sister tormenting the little sister.

Like when I was a kid I was told that if someone hit you in the back while your eyes were crossed, they would stay crossed forever.
