Soap or Candy?

L got in the car today after school and was really excited to have a treat that one of her friends on the bus gave her. (Most things happen on the bus) I looked at it first and thought okay no peanuts so it looks safe, looks like a homemade sucker without a stick, wrapped very nicely in a bag with a tie. Sure L it looks okay, you can have it. She took one bite and started crying that it tastes disgusting, I grabbed it quickly and could smell that it was not candy but instead soap. I tried to reassure her that it was okay I thought it was candy too. Her response through tears, "the same thing's gonna happen to Christina". Maybe her mom will be smart enough to tell the difference between soap and candy.

Isn't this kind of early?

Me: We need to pick out your outfit for tomorrow.
L: I need to pick out something that Rowan will like.
Me: You need to pick out something you like, it doesn't matter if Rowan likes it or not.
L: I know mom..............his favorite color is red, what do I have that is red?
