Mommy Lies

Sometimes us mommies tell innocent lies to our kids to make things easier - I'm one of those moms.  This morning after a trip to the library, we got back in the car and Charlotte erupted into tears.  She was crying pretty hard and I heard something about swallowing her gum.  I pulled out the phone and got a bit of it.  I guess I shouldn't have told her that little lie "gum is for chewing - and if you swallow it you will get sick".  Poor Cheeto (Madison and I could hardly contain ourselves).
