Pinkeye and Pookus
Pinkeye: yep, there’s nothing more fun than eyedrops for a toddler.
Pookus: the nonsense name of the week. As in, “Who are you talking to on the phone?” “Pookus!”
Toddlers are foolish:
Mom: “Etta, are you biting your hand?”
Etta (sounding proud of herself): “Yeah!”
Mom: “Does that hurt?”
Etta (sounding a little surprised and disappointed): “Yeah!”
