The Pepto Perpetrator

Today while getting ready to take my shower, I came across pink drips of some liquid on my floor. The drips were coming from my medicine cabinet. I opened it and found an EMPTY bottle of Pepto-Bismol! Most mothers would have freaked out and called 9-1-1 but I have experience with my children getting into things like Ipecac Syrup (that was a fun hour of vomit!) and Tylenol....yup, a whole half bottle of Childrens' Tylenol. I digress. After questioning both boys, I discovered the guilty one was Mr. Dramatic. Which quite surprised me because he was the one who had swallowed the Ipecac before. I thought after vomiting that much, it would have been seared into his memory. Apparently not. He seems to be fine.

Some people's kids...

OH MY GOSH...You just brought back a memory. When I was about 8 or 9 I use to sneak into my Grandparents medicine cabinet and drink their pepto when I would visit them. Then when I got older, I couldn't figure out why I was addicted to these pink little candy thingies that tasted EXACTLY like pepto! :)

Wow! I am surprised too. I'd have thought that had been a vivid memory and lesson learned. Glad everyone is all right!
