Suckerball

We’ve been putting off giving her this leftover valentine’s sucker for days. In the morning, it’s been “you can have it after school.” In the evening she has forgotten about it until close enough to bedtime that we say “not before bed; you can have it tomorrow.”

Tonight we ran out of excuses and ended up learning that she calls a lollipop a “suckerball”. Huh.
