Lessons on "Saving" a Lollipop for Later...

A couple of months ago, I found Kennedy's hiding place of where she had been stashing her contraband lollipop in between licking it occasionally (you know, whenever she needed a little sugar rush).  She had been hiding it behind the toilet for safe-keeping. (Yes, I know that is so disgusting that it is painful to even contemplate, but it is so true).  I explained it was dirty back there, but since she couldn't see the dirt on the lollipop, she probably thought I was making it all up just to keep her from having her little treat.

But yesterday she once again tried to hide a lollipop on the ground so she could save it for later (at least this time it was the kitchen floor), and this time there were actual dirt particles and fuzzies that had gotten attached, so she finally understood that floors have dirt that sticks to lollipops and make them yucky.  I was pretty proud of myself for finally getting through to her.  Until this morning, when I found THIS on the floor underneath one of our chairs, "hiding" from us parents: 

Apparently Kennedy took what I said to heart, so she found herself a little lollipop "holder" to keep her lollipop from being on the floor.  I started to ask her about it, but then stopped and decided to grab the video camera first so that I could record whatever explaination she was going to try and come up with.  Someday, I want her to be able to wach this video and be as gross-ed out as the rest of us about how completely wrong it is.
