drugged out
the other night paul had an allergic reaction and asked for benadryl. we gave him a dose of the cherry-flavored kind and he unpredictably conked out early. (i say "unpredictably" because this child NEVER passes out post-benadryl. i do every single time, but him? NEVER.)
last night:
paul: i want to have an allergic reaction.
me: why?
me: you want more benadryl?
paul: yes.
paul: it tastes kind of good.
god knows i was surely tempted to drug the child and make an early night of it, but i swear, the idea was only tempting for a minute. or maybe two.
